This duo has had their share of problems so far, but three points in this very important fixture would certainly provide a boost. Let's hear it for Fram - Fylkir!

Insights:
  • Fram have the most conceded goals (39) in Pepsideild
  • Fylkir have failed to keep a clean sheet in all their away matches.

6-5-10 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Fylkir when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 21 matches are 29-39 (scored/conceded).

These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Fram form and stats

Fram, who have the most conceded goals (39) in Pepsideild, have played 8 Pepsideild games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-1-3 (wins-draws-losses). When Fram hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Fram, Keflavik and IBV), they have won 2 of 2 matches! Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Fram with their four defeats in a row. Not since the HK game, 41 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Stress levels are on the rise for Fram's attacking players as they have now played 388 minutes without scoring in a league game. Sigurjónsson was their last goal scorer.

In their previous game, the manager Sveinsson led his Fram to a defeat away at Stjarnan. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Framvöllur Úlfarsárdal. As you see from the result above, Fram suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Valur (0-1).

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Fram handle that role? We have found 6 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 4 wins, 2 draws and 0 defeats.

Goal party? Who knows about this one, but we do know that 12 of the 15 latest league games with this club has had three goals or more.

Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 13 goals have been conceded.

Fylkir form and stats

There's been little loot from Fylkir's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 8 away games in the Pepsideild. Fylkir only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 2 draws.

Two away games in a row for Fylkir, whose coach Sigmundsson could celebrate last time after the win against FH. Yippee; their first victory in the league after seven games not winning. As you can tell from the result, the match against FH was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against HK.

Observe that 11 of this side's 13 most recent league rounds have ended with three or more goals.

The visiting Fylkir have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 10 goals from 8 games. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. For Fylkir, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

Fylkir have pulled off a sequence of 8 consecutive games without defeat (6-2-0) when playing Fram.

Fram and Fylkir have met already this season: Fylkir - Fram 3-1.
