Regular season winner KAIS Mora IF played against Täby FC IBK in the semis. In the decisive fifth match KAIS Mora won the match 7-3 and made their way to the final once again.
KAIS Mora won their historical first title in 2014-15, but since then they have had to settle for silver. IKSU have raised the cup five times and in the last Superfinal they defeated KAIS Mora 4-1. Will they repeat the trick?
