Kalmar FF go into the Örgryte clash aiming for three points

Kalmar FF host Örgryte at Guldfageln Arena on Sunday afternoon in an Allsvenskan fixture that could become a turning point in their fight to avoid relegation. Coach Toni Koskela has called for a solid defence after a string of away setbacks, while striker Charlie Rosenqvist has netted five goals in 11 appearances this season.

What is the recent form of both sides?

Kalmar have collected 10 points from 10 games and sit 13th in the table. Their home record is among the best – ten points from five matches – but their away form has been poor. Örgryte sit bottom with six points after ten rounds and have only one win to their name. Both clubs have played two friendlies since the last league meeting; Kalmar won 2‑0 against AIK and 2‑0 against Brommapojkarna.

Who is missing and who can make the difference?

Kalmar will be without Aboubacar Keita due to injury, but still boast a potent attack with Rosenqvist, who has scored six times in 14 league games, and the young forwards Charles Sagoe Jr and Marius Söderbäck who together have four goals. Defender Rony Jansson is expected to start at the back. Örgryte report no injuries; their top scorer is Anton Andreasson with three goals, and veteran Tobias Sana has one goal from 12 appearances.

What does the match mean for Kalmar FF?

A win would give Kalmar the three points needed to climb out of the relegation zone, while a loss could cement their 13th‑place standing. With 52 goals scored and 21 conceded this season (+31 goal difference) Kalmar have a strong attack but must improve away performances. A positive result on Sunday could also provide momentum ahead of their next fixture against Hammarby FF on July 12, where they travel.

What can we expect in the line‑up?

Kalmar may line up Brolin in goal, backed by Jansson, Saetra, Hallberg and Larsson in defence. The midfield could feature Gojani and Gustafsson, with Rosenqvist, Chourak and Sagoe Jr up front, and Söderbäck as the final striker. Örgryte could start with Gustafsson in goal, a back four of Svensson, Lagerlund, Dyrestam and Styffe, Andreasson in midfield and Paulson, Vindehall and Sana in attacking positions.
