Djurgården Faces Chelsea Without Ståhl Amid Growing Injury Concerns

Djurgården has an almost hopeless starting position ahead of the return match against Chelsea. It doesn't get any better with Adam missing the match at Stamford Bridge in London.

He's not playing. That's all I can say. So another right-back will play, says coach Jani Honkavaara according to TV4 Fotbollskanalen.

Djurgården suffered a severe setback in the first semifinal in the Conference League.

Chelsea won 4–1 at the 3 arena in Stockholm and it will take a minor miracle for Djurgården to turn the deficit around in the return match on Thursday evening.

With Ståhl added to the long injury list, Djurgården only has 13 available from the A-team.

Therefore, Melvin Vucenovic Persson and Carl Selfvén from the P19 team remain in the squad for the Conference League.

Djurgården can count on strong support from the stands. According to TV4 Fotbollskanalen, around 5,000 supporters have traveled to London – despite the club only being allocated 2,177 tickets.

Djurgården has tried to get a larger allocation, but Chelsea has said no.

In the second semifinal, Fiorentina and Real Betis meet in Florence. Betis won the first match 2–1.
