Mjallby will aim to open up a seven-point lead at the top of the Swedish Allsvenskan table when they play host to Sirius at the Strandvallen on Sunday. Having failed to win their last eight meetings, Andreas Engelmark’s men will head into the weekend looking to get one over the hosts and secure their first league victory since June 1.
Mjallby maintained their fine run of results last Sunday when they picked up a comfortable 2-0 victory over AIK on home turf.
Anders Torstensson’s side have gone 10 back-to-back games without defeat across all competitions, claiming eight wins and two draws since losing 2-1 versus AIK in May.
Mjallby have picked up 40 points from their 17 Allsvenskan matches so far to lead the way at the top of the table, four points above second-placed Hammarby.
Sirius, on the other hand, continue to struggle for results in the danger zone as they suffered a 1-0 defeat against Goteborg at the Studenternas IP last weekend.
Engelmark’s men have failed to win seven of their most recent eight Allsvenskan games, losing six 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 16 league matches so far to sit 14th in the standings, one point behind 13th-placed Degerfors just outside the relegation zone.
