Sirius and Mjallby bring round 15 of the Swedish Allsvenskan to an end when they lock horns at Studenternas IP on Monday. Andreas Engelmark’s men have failed to win their last seven games against the visitors and will be looking to end this poor four-year run.
Sirius continue to struggle for results at the wrong end of the Allsvenskan table as they fell to a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Goteborg when the sides met at Gamla Ullevi last Sunday.
Engelmark’s side have failed to win five of their last six league matches — losing four and claiming one draw — with a 3-1 victory over AIK on June 1 being the exception.
Sirius have picked up 13 points from their 14 Allsvenskan matches so far to sit 13th in the league standings, level on points with 14th-placed Degerfors in the relegation playoff spot.
On the other hand, Mjallby maintained their fine run of results in the upper echelons of the league table as they picked up a 1-0 victory over Oster last time out.
Anders Torstensson’s men have gone eight straight matches without defeat across all competitions, claiming six wins and two draws since March’s 2-1 loss against AIK.
Mjallby have picked up 34 points from their 14 league matches so far to sit top of the table, one point above second-placed Hammarby.
