HB form and stats

31 points is a decent return from 13 Meistaradeildin games here at Gundadalur for HB. The data says 10 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. HB has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Gundadalur. We remember; it was KÍ.

A strong away win for HB against 07 Vestur the last match, as J. Thomsen (2), A. Justinussen and M. Dahl (2) were on target. As indicated by the result mentioned above, HB played a great game against 07 Vestur and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.
