It has been even for a long time, but now the fate of the last team must be decided.

Here are the conditions for the teams that risk joining Uppsala and falling out of the damallsvenskan with two rounds left.

11. Umeå, 19 points, goal difference – 20.

Umeå is currently at the relocation site, but has everything in his own hands when they meet Djurgården at the home location on Sunday. Winning and drawing keep the season alive, but if they lose at the same time as Växjö wins their game against Eskilstuna, hope is basically out. The only lifeline then is that Piteå doesn’t score more points and Umeå evokes goal difference. Even a cross for Växjö makes things difficult for Umeå in the event of a defeat, given the goal difference. If Umeå and Växjö lose, they will have a tough duel in the final round where Umeå has a difficult away game against Eskilstuna.

10. Djurgården, 20 points, goal difference -13.

If Djurgården wins the crisis meeting in Umeå, the contract is secured. A tie is also possible as they keep Umeå behind them at the table. Djurgården has the easiest match on paper in the final round when he faces the last Uppsala who is already ready for relegation.

9. Växjö, 21 points, goal difference – 17.

A home win against Eskilstuna secures the contract, but at a crossroads, life can be more difficult if Umeå wins their match against Djurgården. Then both Umeå and Växjö will remain with 22 points and Djurgården (who ends up against Uppsala) with 20. Even a cross in that match would keep the tension alive for all three teams in the final round. If Växjö loses to Eskilstuna, he lives in a very dangerous way, because in the final round he awaits tough opposition from FC Rosengård.

8. Piteå, 22 points, goal difference -10.

Piteå has overcome two consecutive victories since the worst crisis. Another win is all that is required to secure the contract, but even a point at home against FC Rosengård, in fact also a loss considering goal difference, may be enough for a celebration this weekend if Djurgården wins against Umeå. . If Umeå wins or draws while Piteå loses, it can be sweaty in the final round when Piteå is out against Örebro.

7. Eskilstuna, 23 points, goal difference -1.

Eskilstuna is basically ready for the 2021 damallsvenskan considering Djurgården and Umeå will take points away from each other and also due to the overwhelming goal difference compared to the competitors they are chasing. Everything should go wrong and the goal difference is consumed. He meets the last two teams: Växjö first and Umeå later.
