Piteå has not won in nine rounds, the latest win in the damallsvenskan came on 19 July.
- We lost shape during this intense match period from mid-July to mid-August where we had 13 away nights and then of course the training suffered, says coach Stellan Carlsson.
But shouldn't you have been prepared for the tough match program?
-
Yes, but at the same time ... That period we had 13 away nights and the trips we made there is no team in history that has done, so no matter how we prepare, the fact will still be that we are traveling, we play matches and it causes problems with recovery and so on.
Norrbotten is in tenth place, only two points ahead of Uppsala, which after Växjö's win against Umeå on Friday is now last.
Exactly the team you meet on Sunday.
- I think we have good players and leaders so I have a very strong belief that we will fix these, we will sort them out together, says Julia Karlernäs.
