Receiving guests at their own home feels safe and nice for ÍF, but KÍ are fully bent and capable to win. How will it turn out?

Insights:
  • ÍF have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.

ÍF form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Meistaradeildin this season. ÍF have only managed 3 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses from their games here at á Fløtugerði. All in all it has been a very rough period for ÍF who hasn’t won a league-game in their last eleven attempts. Their previous win was against EB / Streymur, 132 days ago.

E. W. Joensen was the last player to score a league goal for ÍF and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as ÍF haven't scored in 277 minutes.

ÍF are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-5 away versus B36. ÍF were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Preceding that match was a defeat to HB (0-2).

The ÍF fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 11 matches. ÍF have conceded 22 goals in these home games, a significant number.

KÍ form and stats

The away performances of KÍ have been very solid so far with 10 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats in the Meistaradeildin. The question is whether this happy travelling can continue. KÍ have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of seven victories in a row regardless of arena.

363 minutes! That's how long the KÍ goalkeeper Mathias Rosenørn and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

The supporters enjoyed KÍ's previous game versus 07 Vestur (placed 6th), a Meistaradeildin 4-0 win played at home. As you can tell from the results above, KÍ was very dominant against 07 Vestur, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with P. Klettskarð and J. Bjartalíð (2) providing the goals.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus B68 at their stadium, the result 5-0.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as KÍ alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (44 from 11 played). The KÍ defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (4 goals in 11 games). It's worth mentioning that 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

The participants have faced each other before in this season, with the result KÍ - ÍF 4-0 logged in the official records. Previous ten meetings between these sides: ÍF won zero, KÍ triumphed in ten and we saw zero draws. ten games with over 2,5 goals, zero matches with two goals or less.
