Meetings between these two teams have always tended to end goalless or razor-thin. The two have met many times and most of those games finished with low scores. This time it is different in that GIF Sundsvall are sinking at the bottom of the table and need points urgently, while Ljungskile are still mid-table and playing with more ease. GIF Sundsvall just lost 0-4 in their latest match and have lost two in a row without scoring at all. Their attack has been stiff all season, scoring only 16 goals from 24 matches, but the defence is an even bigger problem, having conceded 51 already. Ljungskile also just lost 0-2 in their latest match, but overall they look steadier, especially a defence that has conceded only 33 all season, and they play away from home in an organised way. This game should shape up with Ljungskile controlling the tempo and pushing forward, while GIF Sundsvall sit deep and wait for counterattacks or set pieces. If the hosts keep conceding easily as they have lately, the game could slip away in the first half, but if they hold the score until late, the chance of Ljungskile pushing up and getting caught on the counter is high.
