Vasteras welcome AIK to Hitachi Energy Arena for a Swedish Allsvenskan round 17 fixture on Saturday. The home side are coming off a 4-0 away thrashing at the hands of Hacken last weekend.
Zeidane Inoussa, Romeo Amane, Amor Layouni and Srdjan Hrstic scored a goal each to inspire their side to the victory.
AIK, meanwhile, suffered a 1-0 defeat at home to GAIS. Gustav Lundren's third-minute strike was the difference between the two sides.
The defeat saw Gnaget drop to 11th spot in the table, having garnered 20 points from 16 games. Vasteras are bottom of the standings with 12 points to their name.
Vasteras vs AIK Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- Their most recent clash came in April 2024 when AIK claimed a 1-0 home win in the reverse fixture on the opening day of the campaign.
- Four of Vasteras' last six league games have witnessed goals at both ends.
- AIK have lost seven of their last nine league games.
- Four of Vasteras' last five league games have produced at least three goals.
- AIK have the joint-worst away record in the league with just five points garnered in eight games on their travels.
Vasteras vs AIK Prediction
Vasteras returned to the top flight for the first time since 1997 having won the Suprettan last season. However, Kalle Karlsson's side have been the worst team in the league this season and are six points away from safety. They have struggled for goals throughout the campaign and have scored just six in eight games played in front of their fans - the worst record in the league.
AIK, for their part, do not have immediate relegation worries. However, their recent record has been poor and they have lost four of their last five league games. This form has left them just three points above the relegation zone and a loss here would see them looking over their shoulders. Furthermore, they have the worst away defensive record in the league, having conceded 23 goals in eight games on their travels.
This is technically a relegation six-pointer and chances could come at a premium. Although one side could nick a win, we are backing the spoils to be shared in a low-scoring stalemate.
Prediction: Vasteras 1-1 AIK
