Week 18 brings us a match on Aug 15th where IFK Göteborg will host Hammarby in a meeting of these two evenly matched Allsvenskan teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 21 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. IFK Göteborg is fresh off their 4-0 shutout win against Varberg BoIS. Marcus Berg struck first for IFK Göteborg in the 44th minute on a feed from Hussein Carneil, then Marcus Berg added another in the 59th minute on a feed from Kevin Yakob In the end, Varberg BoIS couldn’t muster any offence and IFK Göteborg ran away with the shutout win. With 20 points in their last 10 matches IFK Göteborg should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, 3rd placed Hammarby, recorded a 3-0 shutout win against GIF Sundsvall. Abdelrahman Saidi struck first for Hammarby in the 1st minute, then Veton Berisha added another in the 71st minute on a feed from Abdelrahman Saidi In the end, GIF Sundsvall was frustrated by Hammarby’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Hammarby ended the match with the shutout victory. Hammarby should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches.
In their last match on the 11th of July, Hammarby was victorious by a score of 3 to 0. Nahir Besara scored the first goal for Hammarby in the 43rd minute, then Gustav Ludwigson added another in the 49th minute on a feed from Bjørn Paulsen At the end of 90 a dissapointed IFK Göteborg couldn’t manage to score, and Hammarby took the shutout win.
Hammarby is glad to have Gustav Ludwigson in top form. In the last 5 matches the attacker has scored 4 goals. Kevin Yakob has been the most effective weapon for IFK Göteborg lately. The Swedish midfielder has netted 3 goals in his last five matches.
