Interest in the match is sky-high and the tickets were almost sold out immediately after they were released, and therefore it is expected to be fully seated at the 3 arena. Perhaps it is largely due to the opposing team.
The team is filled to the brim with international superstars, Chelsea.
Djurgården has had a rocky start to the season in Allsvenskan and is only in 11th place in the table after five matches played.
A major reason for this is the injury chaos that has hit the team during the first part of the season. Oskar Fallenius, Nino Zugelj, Rasmus Schüller, Patric Åslund, and Malkolm Nilsson Säfqvist were all registered in the club's European squad, but are missing due to injury.
Chelsea, in turn, is fielding a strong, albeit somewhat rotated, team. One of those who will start the match on the bench is the team's absolute biggest star Cole Palmer, while younger talents like Tyrique George and Josh Acheampong, 18, are getting the chance.
The teams will line up as follows:
Chelsea (4–2–3–1): Jörgensen – Acheampong, Tosin, Badiashile, Cucurella – James, Dewsbury-Hall – George, Fernández, Sancho – Madueke
Djurgården (4–3–3): Rinne – Ståhl, Une, Danielson, Kosugi – Finndell, Stensson, Gulliksen – Haarala, Nguen, Priske.
Kickoff is at 21.00.
