Something of a derby tonight in Superettan ........


... when IFK Norrkoping host near neighbours Atvidaberg.

IFK will be keen to bounce back after a 2-0 loss to Falkenbergs, a defeat which ended their long unbeaten run. Anything less than 3 points will put an end to their promotion challenge, after working so hard to get back in contention, they will not give up without a fight.

AFF must surely be feeling the effects of a long season, an extended UEFA Cup run has left them playing twice most weeks. They have already conceded 7 goals in the last week and no team in the top 10 has conceded more. Tonight they are without key player and playmaker, Kristian Bergstrom, he along with Eirik Dybendal of IFK, leads the assists "table" and will be sorely missed.

With tired legs, a suspect defence and no one "pulling the strings", they will do well to avoid defeat at Idrottsparken, where IFK have lost just once in 15 starts.

3 points Norrkoping -1/2 1.65 expekt/betting exchanges.

Good Luck.
