Having been knocked out in the quarter-finals in 2021 and 2024, Goransson looking to reach the semi-finals in Stockholm for the first time, and they could not have got off to a better start, knocking out second seeds Marc Polmans and Jan Zielinski in straight sets in the first round.
But against Frantzen and Stevens, they got a taste of the same medicine - the German and Dutchman broke through in the seventh game of the first set, and comfortably held their next two service games to win 6-4.
Goransson and Galloway put up a better fight in the second, as both pairs were unbreakable on serve, though the Swedish-American duo were forced to save one break point.
That set up a tiebreak, but here things unravelled for the home favourite, as he and Galloway lost serve three times, falling to a 7-2 tiebreak defeat to complete a 6-4, 7-6 win for Frantzen and Stevens.
