Week 14 features a match on Saturday Jul 16th, where Djurgården hosts Värnamo in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched Allsvenskan teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, a perfect day for football. 2nd placed Djurgården is fresh off their 2-0 shutout win against Helsingborg. Victor Edvardsen scored the first goal for Djurgården in the 29th minute, then Gustav Wikheim added another in the 62nd minute on a feed from Victor Edvardsen In the end, Helsingborg couldn’t muster any offence and Djurgården ran away with the shutout win. Djurgården should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 20 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 13th placed Värnamo, recorded a 1-1 draw against GIF Sundsvall. Marcus Antonsson struck first for Värnamo in the 4th minute on a feed from Oliveira do Nascimento, then Ronaldo Damus tied it up for GIF Sundsvall in the 56th minute earning GIF Sundsvall a comeback draw. Värnamo is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Värnamo is glad to have Marcus Antonsson in top form. In the last 5 matches the attacker has scored 4 goals. Both Hampus Finndell and Joel Asoro have been the hottest scorers for Djurgården in the last five each having scored 2 goals.
