Hacken welcome Vasteras to Bravida Arena for a Swedish Allsvenskan matchday 16 fixture on Sunday (July 28). The hosts are coming off a 6-2 away thrashing of Dudelange in the first leg of their UEFA Conference League second round qualifiers on Thursday.
Amor Layouni scored a first-half brace, while Zeidanne Inoussa and Ali Youssef scored to help the Swedish side take a 4-2 lead into the break. Samir Hadji scored a first-half brace from the spot for Dudelange. Youssef completed his brace on the hour mark, while Srdjan Hrstic stepped off the bench to complete the rout in the 88th minute.
The Wasps will turn their focus back to the league, where their last game saw them share the spoils in a 2-2 draw with Varnamo.
Vasteras, meanwhile, drew 1-1 at Goteborg last weekend. They went behind to Paulos Abraham's 48th-minute strike, but Abdelrahman Boudah scored a last-gasp equaliser in the ninth minute of injury time.
The loss left them at the bottom of the standings on 12 points, while Hacken are seventh with 24 points after 16 games.
