Joakim Jensen's Ljungskile SK side currently sit 13th in the Superettan 2026 table, after picking up 11 points in their opening 11 matches of the campaign. The hosts have struggled to replicate the form that saw them promoted from the Ettan Norra last season, with a combination of boardroom struggles and a lack of continuity in the technical area failing to help the cause.
Ljungskile's home form has been a mix of the mediocre and the bad, with 2 wins and 3 losses giving them an average of 1.20 goals scored and 1.40 conceded at home in Superettan 2026. With their attacking play dominated by Lukas Lindholm Corner's 3 goals in 11 league games, Ljungskile have opted for a defensive style this season, one which will stifle space and look to hit opponents on the break or from set pieces.
