The answer is in our betting tip for this confrontation
Command Analysis
AIK
SwedenCurrent form
AIK finished 2024 in third place in the Swedish championship, losing only to second-placed Hammarby on additional indicators. This result will allow the Swedish club to take part in the Conference League qualifying matches in the next European season. However, this will not happen anytime soon, and for now they need to prepare for the start of the new Swedish championship. So far, the team has played only one friendly match, in which they lost to Viktoria Plzen (0:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
The club has no problems with the squad ahead of the friendly match.
Interesting trends for betting

- AIK have never beaten Molde in head-to-head matches
Tentative lineup: Nordfeldt - Al-Sayed, Besirovich, Gono, Redkin, Tykosen, Tiedermann, Isherwood, Saletros, Uronen, Celina
Molde
NorwayCurrent form
Molde failed to achieve success in the Norwegian championship, finishing the season only in fifth place in the Premier League and missing out on the European Cup zone. The team was only one point behind Rosenborg, who won a place in the Conference League qualifiers. However, the Norwegians remain in the current Conference League draw, as they managed to finish the group stage in 23rd place and will now play in the playoffs. In the last match, Molde managed to beat the Czech Mlada Boleslav (4:3), which allowed them to stay in the tournament.

- The visitors have failed to score in three of their last five matches
Estimated lineup: Posiadala - Haugen, Bjornback, Lund - Kaasa, Breivik, Enggaard, Eriksson, Linnes - Ihler, Eikrem
Tip and bets
In a friendly match, the opponents have no reason to sit back in defense. The players will certainly try to show themselves in attack, and there will definitely be many substitutions, which eliminates the fatigue factor. The teams have mostly played productive matches in recent matches, so we should expect them to be sharp in the training match. Let bet on the total over.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals for 1.70
Bet on the outcome
Molde players are clearly disappointed with the result in the championship and plan to perform much better in 2025. The Norwegians will probably start to show themselves already from the pre-season matches. AIK has already lost to the Czech Viktoria and is unlikely to be able to cope with another participant in the European Cup.
Our prediction is Molde win for 2.25
Bet on the first half
We don't expect the opponents to go forward in force immediately after the starting whistle. It will obviously take time to get to know each other. In this scenario, a draw at the end of the first half is likely.
Our prediction is a draw in the first half at 2.65
