GIF Sundsvall face league leaders IFK Norrkoping in the Superettan on Tuesday evening. The match at Norrkopings Idrottspark will be a tough challenge for a side sitting 16th in the table with 19 points.
The team's recent form has been highly inconsistent. They come off a 3-2 home win against Ljungskile SK on September 20 but have since lost three in a row, including a 1-0 defeat to Sandviken last week. The most recent head-to-head meeting with Norrkoping also ended in a 1-3 loss back in May.
Recent lineups
IFK Norrkoping lined up in a 4-3-3 formation in their last match against Osters IF. GIF Sundsvall used a 4-4-2 system in the win over Ljungskile, with J. Olsson in goal and the strike partnership of T. Kagayama and Shalom Ekong up front.
With a difficult away fixture ahead, it's important to keep track of the team's fixtures for the rest of the season. A look at the standings shows the size of the task: Norrkoping lead the league by 36 points over Sundsvall. The team's goal difference of 19 scored and 53 conceded must improve if they are to take points off a top side. Kick-off is at 19:00 local time.
