Echoes of heartache: Why are African footballers more likely to die on the pitch
African footballers appear more prone to fatal incidents on the pitch, raising urgent questions about health and safety standards.
Key players include Michael Baidoo, the team's top scorer who shone in their last Europa League outing, and Arber Zeneli, who has contributed to four goals in the last two matches.
Conversely, Mjallby will be without Silas Nwankwo and Adam Petersson, both sidelined due to injuries.
However, they will be buoyed by the form of Jacob Bergstroem, their leading league scorer, who is expected to play a crucial role in their attack once again.
A victory for Elfsborg would not only enhance their European aspirations but also assert their dominance at home.
