Sirius have a near-identical overall record of 12 wins, five draws and three losses in their last 20, but with far more goals shared both ways, 40 scored and 25 conceded. In their last five league games specifically they've won four and drawn one, including away wins at Gais and Orgryte.

Sirius are unbeaten in their last five league matches, but their defence has been looser than Hammarby's in the wider sample.

Comparative Team Statistics: Hammarby FF vs Sirius

Head-to-head: Hammarby's home record stands out

Looking back through meetings played at Hammarby's ground, Sirius haven't actually won any of them in this record. There have been draws, including a 2-2 in the cup and a 0-0 in the league, alongside several Hammarby victories, some by wide margins like 3-0 and 4-1.

A few of those results came in friendlies or cup ties rather than league matches, so it's not a perfect like-for-like comparison, but the overall pattern at this venue has leaned towards Hammarby for some time.

Sirius's table position hasn't translated into results at Hammarby's home ground historically.

League table: Sirius lead, Hammarby chase

Sirius sit top of the Allsvenskan with 55 points from 24 games, built on 17 wins and a healthy 55 goals scored. Hammarby are third with 46 points, six fewer wins but a noticeably tighter defence, having conceded only 21 compared to Sirius's 30.

So while Sirius have the better overall record, Hammarby's numbers suggest a side that's harder to break down, which matters against a Sirius team that have shipped goals fairly often this year.

Sirius's lead owes more to attack than defence, which could matter against a tighter Hammarby backline.

Key men to watch

Sirius's main threat is R. Ure, who has 15 goals in just 15 matches, an excellent scoring rate, with I. Bjerkebo adding 13 goals and six assists of his own.
