The situation at Hacken is well known. They have secured a European ticket for next season (having won the Cup) and at the moment have put all their focus on European competitions, where they will aim to reach the League Phase, even if it is in the Conference League. In the league they have no tangible target, while they hold a relatively safe +8 point gap from the relegation playoff line.

Newly promoted Oster are fighting to secure their stay in the division. They started the season as the bookmakers’ top favorite for relegation, so having two teams below them in the table is seen as a positive outcome. Their squad is poor in quality, but lately they seem to be in decent form. They fight in every game and come from three consecutive draws, all in matches where they were the underdog.

In the midst of European fixtures, Hacken have placed the league in second priority. They show signs of fatigue and have not won in their last four matches. This is an opportunity for the combative Oster, who have the full motivation of staying up, to chase another positive result.
