Before the match, it looked like BK Häcken would have the advantage as they sat in fourth place in the table while GIF Sundsvall was in twelfth place.
It was BK Häcken that started the match with a high tempo and created several dangerous attacks, but GIF Sundsvall's defense held firm. In the seventeenth minute, it was Mak Lind who received a yellow card for a rough tackle.

Referee Andreas Ekberg, with assistance from Stefan Hallberg and Daniel Ekman, had a relatively calm match and issued only two yellow cards in the second half - one to BK Häcken's René Makondele Muzola and one to GIF Sundsvall's Fredrik Holster in the fourth minute of stoppage time.
