ÍF form and stats

4 victories, 0 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what ÍF have to build on here at á Fløtugerði in the Meistaradeildin. ÍF are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at á Fløtugerði, having lost their two previous games here.

ÍF shared the glory with Skála in their last match, an away game that ended all square 4-4. Heartbreak before that as ÍF lost 2-4 at HB's place.

Opportunity lost for ÍF in the Skála match as a lead 2-0 was lost and what looked like a victory ended in a draw. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

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

ÍF are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 10 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 18 goals have been conceded.

EB / Streymur form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for EB / Streymur so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-7 (win-draw-lose). It's a growing despair in Streymur as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

The manager J. Joensen was unhappy after their last game, a Meistaradeildin match played at their home ground Við Margáir. Streymur suffered a 1-5 loss to HB (placed 1st). Prior to that match, the EB / Streymur manager J. Joensen faced defeat when travelling to NSÍ and losing 1-4.

Streymur lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-5 beating and focus on this one.

We have checked recent matches where Streymur have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those one game were zero victories, one draw and zero defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Streymur as they have only managed to score 8 times from 10 away games in the league. For Streymur, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head
