AB Argir are welcoming EB / Streymur for another important game after their 1-3 result against 2nd-placed KÍ.

Argir have less rest than EB / Streymur in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Meistaradeildin game only three days ago. That game was an away game at KÍ, so at least Argir are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

AB Argir form and stats

AB Argir's results here at Skansi Arena in the Meistaradeildin have been very modest with 0 victories, 5 draws and 7 defeats. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 26 attempts. With twelve home Meistaradeildin games in a row without a win, the Argir fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Víkingur game long ago, can be stopped today.

Argir lost their last game at KÍ (placed 2nd) after a 1-3 scoreline. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting ÍF (0-1).

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for AB Argir here at Skansi Arena in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (9 from 12 games). As for conceded goals, Argir's unpleasant statistic is 30 goals surrendered.
