Match Previews

Elfsborg drew 2-2 with St Patricks in the home leg and lost their latest league game in Örebro.....Ilola (k) (mid) and Danielsson (sp) (def) are out injured.....Martin Andersson (r) (def) is now also out.....No suspensions..... Elfsborg threw away a two goal lead against St Pats in the first leg and now have it all to do in Ireland. They also lost in the league at the weekend, suffering a 2-0 reversal in Örebro. However, this is a side that has had a superb run of form recently, conceding just seven goals in 20 league games. For the second leg, Wiland will again be in goals, with Lucic and Augustsson in the centre of the defence. Floren made a welcome return at left back against Örebro, although Andersson was replaced early on and is now out of the game and will be replaced by utility man, Karlsson. In the middle of the park, Swedish international Svensson is now fit and will take his place alongside Mobaeck and Avdic. Key man Ilola is still injured, as is Danielsson, although the latter would be unlikely to start the game. Bajrami is enjoying a superb season and he will again line up on the left wing, with the equally impressive Ishizaki starting on the opposite flank. Up front, Nilsson was suspended at the weekend, but returns for this one. However, it is unclear whether he will dislodge Berglund in the lone attacking role. Elfsborg have spent the entire season grinding out results and it would be no surprise were they to do just that in this game. They should have too much for the Irish minnows in the return leg, but will need to score in order to progress.
