July 10th features a match where Elfsborg and AIK will play a match in Borås in a meeting of these two Allsvenskan teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, a perfect day for football. In their last match, 8th placed Elfsborg, recorded a 1-1 draw against Häcken. Simon Olsson struck first for Elfsborg in the 23rd minute on a feed from Rasmus Alm, then Alexander Jeremejeff tied it up for Häcken in the 37th minute earning Häcken at least a draw. Elfsborg should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 18 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 3rd placed AIK, recorded a 0-1 loss against Mjällby. Silas Nwankwo scored the first goal for Mjällby in the 40th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster At the end of 90 a dissapointed AIK couldn’t manage to score, and Mjällby took the shutout win. AIK should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 21 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. Last season AIK won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Both Nabil Bahoui and Jordan Larsson have been the hottest scorers for AIK in the last 5 each having scored 2 goals each. Elfsborg is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Johan Larsson and Rasmus Alm each having 2 goals in their last five.
