After a five-week hiatus, Vasteras SK and Hacken are set to return to action in the Swedish Allsvenskan at the Hitachi Energy Arena on Monday. This encounter marks their first meeting since March 2021, when Hacken triumphed 3-0 in a cup match.
Newcomers Vasteras SK have found it challenging to adjust to the Allsvenskan, sitting at the bottom of the table. They have managed just two wins in 12 matches, with a record of eight losses and two draws. Despite their struggles, Vasteras ended their pre-break games on a high note, securing a dominant 4-0 victory over Kalmar. This win, along with back-to-back draws against Sirius and Brommapojkarna, means they are currently on a three-match unbeaten streak.
Vasteras' main issues lie in their defense, having conceded 14 goals while scoring only eight. However, their recent form suggests a potential turnaround as they look to climb out of the relegation zone.
Hacken comes into this match following two friendlies: a 3-2 loss to Sirius and a 4-2 win over Halmstads. In the league, Hacken's form has been inconsistent, with only one win in their last five matches. Their most recent league game before the break was a comprehensive 4-1 victory over AIK.
Currently sixth in the Allsvenskan table with 20 points from 13 matches, Hacken has struggled on the road, losing their last four away games across all competitions. This away form will be a concern as they face a rejuvenated Vasteras side.
**Vasteras SK:**
**Out:** Simon Gefvert and Edward Chilufya
**Hacken:**
**Out:** Isak Brusberg , Jeremy Agbonifo , Barrett Laursen, Nikola Zecevic Despite Hacken being favorites, Vasteras' recent form and home advantage could help them secure a positive result. Hacken’s poor away form might also contribute to a closely contested draw at the Hitachi Energy Arena.
在中断了五周之后,韦斯特拉斯SK和哈肯将于周一在日立能源竞技场重返瑞典阿尔斯温斯坎的比赛。这是他们自2021年3月以来的首次交锋,当时哈肯在杯赛中以3比0获胜。
新来者Vasteras SK发现,要适应排名垫底的Allsvenskan是一项挑战。他们在12场比赛中仅取得2胜,战绩为8负2平。尽管他们很挣扎,韦斯特罗斯队在休息前的比赛中取得了很高的成绩,以4比0的优势战胜了卡尔玛。这场胜利,加上对小天狼星和布罗玛波伊卡纳的背靠背平局,意味着他们目前处于三场不败的状态。
韦斯特拉斯的主要问题在于他们的防守,他们丢了14个球,只进了8个球。然而,他们最近的状态表明了一个潜在的转机,因为他们希望爬出降级区。
哈肯参加这场比赛之前进行了两场友谊赛:3-2输给小天狼星和4-2战胜哈尔姆斯塔德斯。在联赛中,哈肯的状态一直不稳定,在最近的五场比赛中只取得了一场胜利。他们在中场休息前的最近一场联赛是4-1完胜AIK。
目前,哈肯在13场比赛中积20分,排在阿尔斯温斯坎积分榜的第六位。哈肯在客场表现不佳,在所有赛事中输掉了最近4场客场比赛。客场的状态将是他们面对重新焕发活力的威斯特拉斯的一个问题。
