Umeå FC – Södertälje FK
Umeå FC have been racking up the wins lately and come into today’s game with four wins and a draw in their last five outings. On Monday they were very impressive 4-0 winners at home to top opponents IFK Luleå, a game in which Simon Mårtensson scored his 15th league goal of the season. Another home game awaits today and facing a weaker opponent in Södertälje FK, a win is more than a little likely for the hosts.
Södertälje FK have struggled defensively all season and have conceded 34 goals in only 19 rounds. They are just above the relegation zone and lost 1-5 at home to Nyköping in the last round. Offensively they do have some pretty decent players, and score quite a few goals, but they are still to find a way to stop conceding. They are really in for a test today against high-flying Umeå and the 650 km bus ride as preparation won’t help.
