Sirius vs IFK Goteborg: Prediction and odds on the Match on 20 July 2025

Sirius and Goteborg will settle scores at the Studenternas IP on Sunday, 20 July 2025. Sirius have lost five of their last seven games, while the visitors have won four of their last six games in the league. Who will win? Below, you will find the team news, possible starting lineup, head-to-head statistics, interesting facts, betting tips, and odds.

Sirius: form and statistics

Sirius suffered a 2-1 loss to Mjallby in their last game, with Jako Voelkerling scoring the consolation goal for them in the 80th minute. They played well in the game with 15 shots, of which seven were on target, but they were wasteful. The loss extended their winless record to three straight games, where they saw two losses and a draw. At home, they have managed two wins in their last seven games. Blåsvart sit 13th on the table with 13 points in 15 games, scoring 21 goals and conceding 27. They are one step outside the relegation zone, and any drop in points in this game might see them drop into the danger zone.

Sirius: Team News and Injury Report

Sirius will be without at least three players in this contest, with Tobias Carlsson, Noel Milleskog, and Hugo Andersson already ruled out for this game. Regardless, Andreas Engelmark will continue with his 4-3-3 formation that will see Ismael Diawara in between the sticks. Henrik Castegren will partner with Tobias Anke at the back, and I expect to see the attacking trio of Isak Bjerkebo, Robbie Ure, and August Ljungberg.

Sirius vs IFK Goteborg match prediction, 20 July 2025

Sirius have not been serious since the start of the season, either on the road or on their home turf. They are even in the relegation battle, and I don’t think they have all it takes to win this game. So, I expect the visitors to win or get at least a point from this game. However, the defence of both sides are in shambles, so it won’t be surprising to see goals from both sides of the net.
