IK will have a reshuffled line-up against Vimmerby due to several absences.
Ludvig Markman is out with a lower-body injury and will be replaced by Wille Nilsson. Pontus Näsén and Manne Ågren are ill, while Matt Brown, Ville Svensson and Albin Larsson will sit out as a precaution.
That gives U20 players Melker Vidsäter and Arvid Söderkvist their chance. IK have also brought in Oskarshamn native Albin Laksonen on loan from Tyringe.
IK will dress seven defencemen against Vimmerby.
