- AIK are unbeaten in six Allsvenskan 2025 home games (W4, D2).
- Degerfors IF have lost their last five consecutive games (L5).
- Degerfors IF have only beaten AIK once in Allsvenskan H2H matchups (W1, L1).
AIK are a top-three contender
Allsvenskan 2025 is starting to take shape and with AIK sitting third on 29 points after 15 games, new head coach Mikkjal Thomassen will have seen enough to suggest that his side are ready to challenge for the title.
The challenge will be to keep that momentum going after their home form stuttered recently, claiming one win and suffering one defeat from their last two league games at Friends Arena. According to our AIK vs Degerfors IF prediction, AIK will need to rediscover their fortress mentality in which they conceded just four Allsvenskan goals at an average of 0.67 per-match here this term, as they face a Degerfors IF side that have been in free-fall in recent weeks.
Degerfors IF in dire straights
Degerfors IF languishes at 14th place on just 13 points from their first 14 Allsvenskan 2025 games as they fight to avoid relegation. The AIK vs Degerfors IF preview puts the pressure on boss Henok Goitom to make a mark early on in his reign as he took over on 9th July 2025, but he has seen his team lose each of their five competitive matches since.
The good news is that his players have the appetite to attack teams with direct, fast-paced soccer, but often get exposed defensively as a result of their high-tempo style.
Degerfors IF won’t lie down
As AIK are a much more measured side, this should be an interesting contrast of styles and there is certainly a chance that Degerfors IF could nick a goal on their travels. It’s worth considering the AIK vs Degerfors IF odds, as Degerfors IF have conceded 2.29 goals per game across their three away wins and four defeats in this Allsvenskan season, so a bet on AIK to win and over 2.5 goals scored looks like a strong play at odds against.
Omar Faraj is Degerfors IF's most exciting player with six goals in ten Allsvenskan 2025 appearances, but AIK's new boss Thomassen has already sorted out their midfield structure and so star man Johan Hove can do his thing. In our latest AIK vs Degerfors IF prediction, Hove has six league goals for the season and he has scored two of AIK’s last four, so I’m going for him to score anytime as my main bet in this game. Here are some AIK vs Degerfors IF betting tips: focus on goal scorers and AIK to win with a high total goals outcome.
