Rosengard (W) are still a work in progress
Recent form and transition
Rosengard (W) have claimed just six points from their opening ten games of the 2026 Damallsvenskan season and sit in a disappointing 13th position in the standings. Joel Kjetselberg's side simply haven't found any form as of yet, with two defeats, two draws and a win from their last five matches failing to put them back on track.
They come into this matchup off the back of a two-game losing streak following a 3-0 defeat away at AIK, a 0-1 reverse at Malmoe FF and a 0-0 draw against Eskilstuna United DFF. Kjetselberg has attempted to rebuild his side after a turbulent few years and he is in the midst of a transitional phase as the club attempts to restore their dominance of Swedish women's soccer.
Playing style
Rosengard (W) are a possession-based side that likes to build up their play patiently. The wide players are encouraged to take up wide positions and the club has recruited some physical target players to play through the middle to try and gain an advantage over their opponents.
Djurgardens’ new-look side is yet to find their form
Tactical matchup
This is a more interesting matchup than it first appears with the hosts' style of play set to face off against Djurgardens IF FF (W) as Willie Kirk's side likes to stay compact and press as a unit before using quick players to transition into the wide channels.
Form and stats
Djurgardens IF FF (W) are one place higher in the table in 12th position with eight points from ten matches, but they have only fared marginally better than their hosts. Djurgardens have won one, drawn one and lost three of their last five, including a 3-0 away loss to AIK, a 0-1 home loss to Malmoe FF, and a 0-0 draw with Eskilstuna United DFF.
Kirk has done a good job of tightening up his side's defensive organisation since taking the job, but they have still struggled to score goals, averaging just 0.40 goals per away game, although they concede an average of 2.20 per game on the road.
The verdict
With neither side in any form and both conceding goals too often for either to win comfortably, we will take the draw and under 2.5 goals.
- Urara Watanabe is Djurgardens IF FF's top scorer with just three goals in ten Damallsvenskan 2026 appearances.
- Molly Johansson is Rosengard (W)'s top marksman with three goals in the same number of games and she can provide a focal point at the top of the pitch in the absence of a central striker.
- The odds look slightly in favour of Rosengard (W) at 2.34, while Djurgardens IF FF are a huge 2.65 and the draw is 3.4.
