This fixture is rather unlikely to serve as a good promotion for the Swedish Allsvenskan, as both teams have been involved rather lacklustre performances so far. AFC Eskilstruna have been promoted for the first time in history, but it looks like they don't really belong to Allsvenskan so far. AFC Eskilstruna are rock bottom of the table, having failed to win a single game in 11 attempts so far. They have taken just a single point from their last seven fixtures, and that helps to make our AFC Eskilstuna vs AIK predictions.
AIK are one of the traditional forces in Sweden, and they finished the 2016 season as runners-up, but this term they have significant problems scoring after selling the sensational Alexander Isak to Borussia Dortmund. AIK found the net just eight times in the first ten matches while conceding only six goals. That suggests that we should expect a low scoring affair in our AFC Eskilstuna vs AIK preview.
(Odds taken from Bet365)
AIK have conceded only once in their last six fixtures, and that was in injury time against the champions from Malmo. What are the chances of Allsvenskan's weakest team to score against them? It is obvious that such statistics are important for our AFC Eskilstuna vs AIK picks, and the odds on AIK to keep a clean sheet are extremely good at 2.25. It is quite natural that we shouldn't expect a lot of goals here, and the odds on under 2.5 goals look extraordinary at 1.95.
