Elfsborg's manager Oscar Hiljemark has received a significant boost with the return of Kosovan winger Arber Zeneli to full training after a five-month injury layoff.


However, Arber Zeneli is not expected to play this weekend, leaving his younger brother Besfort Zeneli to take a pivotal role in midfield; the 22-year-old has featured in 11 Allsvenskan matches this season, recording one goal and four assists.


Jens Thomasen and goalkeeper Isak Pettersson will be absent, but star striker Frederik Ihler is set to lead the attack. Ihler ranks as the second-top scorer in Sweden's top league, with seven goals so far this season.


For Hammarby, captain Nahir Besara, who scored the winning goal on Monday, leads the team with six goals and is expected to support Abdelrahman Boudah in attack once again.


Hammarby will be without centre-back Pavle Vagic due to suspension, while Dennis Collander and Oscar Johansson Schellhas are out with knee injuries.



Elfsborg possible starting lineup:

Eriksson; Holmen, Buhari, Wikstrom; Hedlund, B. Zeneli, Olsson, Hult; Ostman, Ihler, Sigurpalsson


Hammarby possible starting lineup:

Hahn; Skoglund, Eriksson, Fofana, Pinas; Karlsson, Tekie; Madjed, Besara, Tounekti; Boudah
