Hässleholms IF form and stats

Hässleholms IF have collected 11 points from their Division 2: Sodra Gotaland home games so far after 3-2-3.

The spoils were shared in Hässleholms IF's previous game, also at home. Visiting Nosaby (placed 9th) travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. It's a bit interesting, but the exact result 1-1 has occurred three league matches in a row.

Low-scoring affair? Looking at this team's last 12 league games, 9 have had two goals or less.

Hässleholms IF are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 9 goals in 8 games.

Balkan form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Balkan so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 2-0-6 (win-draw-lose).

Balkan are travelling again after losing away to Asarum in their previous match (0-2). That loss was their first after three consecutive league fixtures winning points.

A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Österlen.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Balkan as they have only managed to score 6 times from 8 away games in the league. The Balkan manager has some worries about the defense as 17 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Hässleholms IF and Balkan have faced each other before this season: Balkan - Hässleholms IF 3-3. Head-2-head stats last three meetings: two - one - zero (Hässleholms wins - draws - Balkan wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), zero had two or less.
