Degerfors occupy the relegation playoff spot and are level on points with Sirius above them. They will be aiming for a win here, but their form over the last few months does not suggest they can turn this around. Henok Goitom's side have struggled defensively, having conceded 33 goals - more than anyone else.
GAIS, for their part, are flying high and their impressive run of form in the last few weeks means they will have their sights set on qualifying for Europe.
