Preview: Hacken vs. Brommapojkarna - prediction, team news, lineups

Sports Mole previews Saturday's Swedish Allsvenskan clash between Hacken and Brommapojkarna, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Hacken will attempt to extend their five-game unbeaten league run when they play host to Brommapojkarna on Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, will be looking to end their poor spell of form, having lost their last three matches in the Allsvenskan.


Match preview

After winning their first Allsvenskan title last year, Hacken will be content with their current position of third place, having picked up 32 points from their 15 matches.

The Swedish champions have proven to be an impressive force in recent weeks, winning four and drawing one of their last five league games.

After edging out AIK Stockholm to claim a 2-1 victory last weekend, Hacken played host to Welsh side TNS in Champions League qualifying on Wednesday.

Goals from Ibrahim Sadiq, Mikkel Rygaard and Even Hovland guided Hacken to a crucial 3-1 first-leg victory, leaving them in a strong position in the first-round qualifying tie.

Impressively, Hacken have now won their last six competitive home games, scoring at least three goals in each of those victories, and they will be determined to showcase that firepower against Brommapojkarna.

While the hosts are in a buoyant mood, the visitors will be in low spirits following a run of three consecutive defeats.

Brommapojkarna looked set to return to winning ways in their home meeting with Degerfors after Oscar Pettersson gave his side a 12th-minute lead from the penalty spot.

They held firm until the final 10 minutes of the contest, but late strikes from Johan Martensson and Erik Lindell condemned Brommapojkarna to a 2-1 defeat.

Having picked up 19 points from 14 games, Olof Mellberg's side currently sit in ninth position in the Allsvenskan table.

The first goal could be crucial for Brommapojkarna, who have won all three away games this season where they have opened the scoring.

Team News

Hacken are unable to call upon the services of Amane Romeo, Johan Hammar and Blair Turgott, who are all ruled out due to injury issues.

Benie Traore has top scored for the hosts this season with 12 league goals, but he appears to have played his last game for the club, with reports suggesting that he is closing in on a move to Premier League club Sheffield United.

After dropping down to the bench in midweek, Momodou Lamin Sonko could be recalled to the starting lineup for Saturday's contest.

As for the visitors, they have doubts over the availability of Alexander Johansson, who was forced off in the first half of his Brommapojkarna debut last weekend.

Nikola Vasic was left out of the starting XI against Degerfors, but he could be brought back into the forward line against Hacken.

The 31-year-old is expected to be joined in the front three by Marijan Cosic and Pettersson, who is the club's current top scorer with five goals in 14 league games this season.


Hacken possible starting lineup:
Abrahamsson; Fridriksson, Hovland, Lunds; Rygaard, Sa. Gustafson, Si. Gustafson; Sadiq, Sonko, Trpchevski

Brommapojkarna possible starting lineup:
Sidklev; Ackermann, Sogaard, Heggem; Calisir, Fritzon, Leach, Jensen; Cosic, Pettersson, Vasic


SM words green background

We say: Hacken 3-1 Brommapojkarna

Hacken will carry momentum into Saturday's contest thanks to their five-game unbeaten league run, and we think they will prove too strong for their opponents, who will be low on confidence following three consecutive defeats.
