The Meistaradeildin season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between ÍF and AB promises to be an interesting one.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Meistaradeildin. This match was also played here at á Fløtugerði. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, AB have had more rest.

AB form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Meistaradeildin for AB with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

AB might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. KÍ proved too strong as AB slumped to a 0-6 defeat in front of their own fans at Skansi Arena. Before that, AB travelled to Skála and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against KÍ was particularly ugly (0-6). The humiliation is still top of mind.

1 goal so far away for AB, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 4. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Last nine meetings between the teams: ÍF won three, AB won six and zero draws. seven games with over 2,5 goals, two matches with two goals or less.
