Recap
The Stockholm derby arrives at a difficult moment for AIK, who enter the match seriously weakened and struggling for form. AIK are winless in their last five league matches (0-2-3), while the list of absences has grown considerably ahead of one of the most demanding fixtures of the season.
Unavailable for the derby are:
❌ Cissé (8/1)
❌ Yohanna (7/2)
❌ Abdihakim Ali (5/0)
❌ Pavey (5/0)
❌ Atola
❌ Nissen
❌ Helm
❌ Redkin
Meanwhile, Hammarby have an ideal opportunity to respond after their defeat away to GAIS in the previous round. Back at 3Arena, where they have remained unbeaten since 17 August 2025, Hammarby will feel confident about returning to winning ways, especially considering their far more stable squad situation. The only unavailable players are Skoglund (9/0) and Koné (1/0).
Another factor that strongly favors the hosts is the recent h2h record at 3Arena, where AIK have suffered defeats in each of their last four visits.
