Degerfors IF – Vasteras SK FK

Degerfors IF host Vasteras SK FK at Stora Valla with the Swedes looking to climb out of the relegation zone where they sit 14th on 20 points after five wins, five draws and fourteen defeats, a goal‑difference of minus 16. Vasteras, meanwhile, sit comfortably in sixth place with 38 points from eleven victories, five draws and eight losses, their narrow +1 goal margin reflecting a much tighter defensive record. The gap of 18 points makes this a daunting task for the hosts, who will need to tighten up after conceding 37 goals this season. If Vasteras can replicate the consistency that has kept them in the top half, they will likely extend their lead in the table, while Degerfors will be desperate for a rare win to spark a late‑season revival.
