Norrkoping take on the visitors Djurgarden in the round 13 match of Swedish Allswnskan. The match will be played on Monday, July 8th at Platinumcars Arena (Norrköping).
Norrkoping has slipped into a relegation battle. "Norrköping," known as "Peking" locally, was the champion of Sweden in 2015, reminding everyone of their glorious traditions. However, the club quickly fell back into a secondary role. Last season, they only managed to finish 9th in the final standings. This season, their main concern is avoiding relegation. After losing their first two matches, the team had a great run, picking up 10 points out of a possible 12. But this upswing was followed by a slump that has been dragging on. The only match they didn't lose was a 1-1 draw against Kalmar—all other games resulted in defeats. This includes heavy losses like 2-6 to AIK, 0-4 to Värnamo, and the summer started with a 1-5 loss away to Sirius.

Djurgården became champions in 2019 for the first time in 14 years. However, competitors quickly pushed them aside again, and last season they only managed to finish 4th in the final Allsvenskan standings. This season, they are the main challengers to the reigning champions and current leaders, Malmö. The question remains whether Djurgården can keep up the pace. As summer approached, doubts started to emerge. After a series of victories, they suffered a significant 0-3 defeat to Hammarby. On the bright side, this slip-up came at a crucial time, providing the coaching staff with valuable insights into the mistakes made and areas for improvement.
Djurgården has not lost any of the last 6 head-to-head matches against Norrköping. In September, they won again, this time away, with a 2-0 scoreline. It’s hard to believe that Norrköping will benefit from their home advantage—the opponent is significantly stronger. We recommend betting on the Stockholm team to secure an away win in this match.
Prediction for the match: Djurgarden to win.
