IFK Göteborg are a Swedish professional football club based in Gothenburg.

IFK Göteborg, formed on 4 October 1904, have won 18 national championship titles, four national cup titles, and two UEFA Cups.
With Malmö FF and AIK, IFK Göteborg are often considered part of the "Big Three" in Swedish club football, who have 43 championship titles between them. IFK is arguably the most successful club in Sweden, and perhaps in Scandinavia, as it is the only Scandinavian team to have won a European cup competition, the UEFA Cup; IFK won the Euro title in 1982 and 1987. They currently rank in the highest Swedish league, Allsvenskan, where they have played for the majority of their history. The last time they played in a lower division was in 1976.
IFK are of one of the most popular football clubs in Sweden, with diverse country-wide support. They have played most of their home games at Gamla Ullevi stadium, and some at the larger Ullevi stadium. The former pitch was torn down in 2007 and a new stadium, Nya Gamla Ullevi, is under construction and will host IFK as of 2009.
