Sirius vs Kalmar Match Analysis & Prediction
11/08/2024 5:00 pm
IK Sirius will be looking to secure a third league victory on the bounce for the first time since April when they face Kalmar FF at Studenternas IP in round 18 of the Swedish Allsvenskan season on Sunday.
Sirius turned in a superb attacking display last weekend as they secured a 4-2 victory over Varnamo when the two sides met at the Finnvedsvallen.
Despite the efforts of Michael Steinwender and Simon Thern, Joakim Person and Leo Walter combined to put the hosts to the sword as they both scored twice to cap off an impressive performance by the Blue-Black.
Sirius have now secured three victories from their last four matches, scoring eight goals and keeping one clean sheet, having managed just three wins in 12 matches preceding this run.
This upturn in form has seen Christer Mattiasson’s side surge from the bottom half of the Allsvenskan table as they now sit in eight position, level on 24 points with ninth-placed Brommapojkarna.
Meanwhile, Kalmar continue to struggle for results at the wrong end of the league table as they suffered a 4-1 defeat to Hammarby at the Guldfageln Arena last Sunday.
In a one-sided affair, Tesfaldet Tekie, Shaquille Pinas, Jusef Erabi and Deniz Gull all found the back of the net to fire Hammarby to their 10th win of the season, with Simon Skrabb getting on the scoresheet for the hosts.
Stefan Larsson’s side have collected just 16 points from their 17 Allsvenskan matches so far to sit bottom but one in the table, four points above last-placed Vasteras and three away from safety.
Sirius vs. Kalmar Head to head
In the previous 17 meetings between these two teams, they claimed five victories each while drawing in seven. Sirius have scored 24 goals and conceded 20 in the process.

Sirius Team News
Sirius remain without the services of 29-year-old defender Tobias Carlsson, who has been ruled out since sustaining a head injury in March’s game against Halmstad.
Swedish forward Herman Sjogrell missed the game against Varnamo last time out due to an injury and the 23-year-old is a major doubt for Sunday’s contest.
