The series has been paused since Thursday when Sandviken had a major infection in the squad and was forced to leave WO and Villa were awarded the victory and went to 2-1 in the series.

On the same day, Villa discovered that they also had a large spread of infection.

"The two clubs submitted on Tuesday evening with a request that the Swedish Bandy Association's board together with the competition committee should revoke the decision on walkover in semifinal 3," the bandy association writes on its website.

The association departed from its covid rules that matches may not be moved in this match series but emphasizes that these rules are in use again for the remainder of this series.

No matches will be postponed, this to be able to play the final, where AIK is waiting, in Uppsala on April 3.

Should the series go to five matches, the winner only gets one day off until the final.
