[wptb id=390714]
A Clash of Contrasts and Unforeseen Outcomes
Key Stats
– AIK have scored just 11 goals in 13 games this season, in contrast, BK Hacken boasts 36 goals in 14 matches.
– Benie Traore of BK Hacken have scored seven goals in his last seven matches, making him a key player to watch.
AIK Fotboll are set to welcome BK Hacken to the Friends Arena this Saturday, with the hosts attempting to secure their second home victory of the Swedish Allsvenskan season. However, this is no easy task, given that they’re currently third-bottom with 10 points. The visitors, on the other hand, will be looking to close the gap to the top spot, maintaining their fiery pursuit for supremacy in the league.
Despite finishing a respectable fifth last season, AIK’s current standings seem out of place. It wasn’t long ago when Andreas Brannstrom departed the club, leaving it in the hands of former Manchester United defender Henning Berg. These changes marked a turning point for AIK, who recently ended a nine-game winless streak with a crucial 2-0 victory against Brommapojkarna.

Rui Modesto’s outstanding performance, resulting in two goals, allowed AIK to gain some ground, distancing them from the currently rock-bottom team Varbergs BoIS in the standings. However, these victories have been sporadic, the last one dating back to mid-April, where they defeated Hammarby. The club’s home record this season isn’t anything to write home about, having collected just six points from six games – a statistic only surpassed in inferiority by two other teams.
On the flip side, BK Hacken enter the match riding a wave of success. Currently sitting third in the league, just five points behind the leaders Malmo, they appear poised to make their mark in Stockholm. A recent stalemate against IFK Norrkoping extended their unbeaten streak to four games, setting a confident tone for their upcoming travels. With 11 points from seven away games this season, only three teams have shown stronger performance on the road.
BK Hacken’s squad doesn’t lack firepower. The Ivorian winger, Benie Traore, currently leads the Allsvenskan scoring chart with 12 goals. The support of Norwegian duo Even Hovland and Lars Olden Larsen, who have scored five goals each, ensures that BK Hacken’s frontline remains a constant threat.
Team Dynamics and Potential Game-Changers
For AIK, Rui Modesto, after his recent outstanding performance, is expected to continue featuring in the starting XI, while John Guidetti might still start upfront, despite struggling in the previous game. He remains the club’s top scorer, with five goals across all competitions.
BK Hacken, on the other hand, will be without Blair Turgott and Ali Youssef due to long-term injuries. However, they will be counting on the services of their in-form striker Benie Traore, who has a fantastic record of scoring seven goals in his last seven matches.
Predictive Analysis and Final Thoughts
The statistical analysis and current form of both teams pave the way to some intriguing predictions. With AIK’s struggle to find the net, scoring only 11 goals in 13 games, contrasted with Hacken’s prolific attacking prowess of 36 goals in 14 league games, it’s evident that the teams are experiencing contrasting fortunes.
The prediction is for BK Hacken to emerge victorious from this encounter, based on their current form and superior attacking force. Additionally, considering AIK’s recent upturn in form and the undeniable threat of players like Modesto and Guidetti, it’s safe to predict that Both Teams to Score (BTTS) seems like a likely scenario.
As for the final score, extrapolating from Hacken’s previous three away wins, two of which were by a 2-0 scoreline, and given AIK’s consistent scoring difficulties, a 3-1 victory for Hacken seems reasonable for a correct score bet.
