Sirius faces ÖIS on Saturday and the team has several injured players. Mikael Dyrestam left the derby at halftime and has been training on the side during the week. Coach Holmberg says that there is no major concern with Dyrestam and that he hopes to see him in training on Saturday. Noah Christoffersson was absent during the week after getting a blow to the foot in the last U21 match. Holmberg says that he hopes Christoffersson will be in training by the end of the week. Abukar and Alm are still on the injury list. Sirius has taken Allsvenskan by storm so far and tops the table. The team is unbeaten and has won 5 of 6 matches. Isak Bjerkebo has scored 6 goals in 6 matches and is perhaps the player who has been the hottest in the entire Allsvenskan during the initial rounds. ÖIS must watch out for Bjerkebo if they are to have a chance in the match. Sirius has shown that they are a team to be reckoned with and it will take a maximum performance for the red and blue to have a chance. When you're a newcomer facing the league leaders away from home, it would be strange to expect any other game image than Sirius being the ball-possessing team. Sirius is not a team that has dominated ball possession in their matches, but has still been the ball-possessing team in most matches. The match that stands out is the match against Hammarby when they instead won the match through an effective transition game. How will Adde approach the match tactically? The team comes from a tough loss and has now had several matches in a row that have left something to be desired. It must give Adde a headache. So how can he instill confidence in the players and get them to believe in an upset? For in all honesty, there is hardly anything that suggests ÖIS will have a chance in this match. But maybe that's exactly what speaks for ÖIS? That the team is back in the same situation as before the season, no one believes in the team, and the expectations in this match are almost zero. Isn't it then that it's best to shock everyone? Another big question is: How will we manage if Dyrestam can't play? We are many who have wondered the same thing, what do we do when Dyrestam can't play? Sirius has a tough match ahead of them, but with the right tactics and a good performance, the team can continue its good form. ÖIS must be prepared for a tough match and make sure to lie right and evaluate when it's time to hit long, play out or set up. In the best of worlds, ÖIS manages to get a game image like the one in the first half away against Mjällby. Then everything was done right, and if they are to be able to punish Sirius, everything must work again.
