Derby and relegation anxiety

We have a team that have done their biggest investments in the squad in many year, beliving they would do even better than last your and maybe be a challenger to the european cup places. Their fans are hungry for success and to be more than just a team people laugh at and who always ends up on the 8-9 position in the league.

They recruited players like Nahir Besara, Jiloan Hamad and Nasiru Moro, who should be to good players to be relegated with a team.

On the other side of the pitch do we have a small town team that's just promoted, plays a very postive and naive football and have been punished for it several times in the league. But they are still not on the relegations spots, they are just above their biggest rival Örebro.
Degerfors har shown that you can make it in Allsvenskan by playing their style that they did in Superettan, and pretty much have the same team as then. Homegrown and not the most spectacular player, with one exception, Victor Edvardsen.
Edvardsen who acutally already been at this level before, but never got a chance in IFK Göteborg, has really shown this season all his qualities and most of the times carried Degerfors on his shoulders.

Tonight at they will play against each other on, in Örebro, and it will probably be a full arena. If Degerfors wins the game, they will send their biggest rival down a division and really take the thrown from Örebro as the biggest and best team in the area. For Örebro, this is almost their last chance to have any mathematical change to stay up in Allsvenskan.

Neither of the teams have that much money in the bank, and to be relegated in the swedish leagues is a really hard blow since the second divsion is not that attractive economically speaking and there is no "Golden parachute" type of deal for the team falling down.

This is gonna be a special game for both teams, a game with passion, agression and probably not the most enjoyable style of playing. It's all what a derby should be about, so if you have the chance to watch it, I recommend you to do it!
