AB Argir form and stats

AB Argir, who have the fewest scored goals (12) in Meistaradeildin, have only collected 2 points from their away games in the Meistaradeildin, after 0-2-8 (10 played). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for AB Argir, who have now gone 20 games without a victory. The Víkingur game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Argir have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the B36 game.

Argir are looking to quickly end their 212 minutes long goal drought in the Meistaradeildin.

AB Argir are travelling again after losing away to B36 in their previous match (0-3). A loss against TB was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Nobody expects Argir to collect anything from a game like this. The team has been David versus Goliath 39 times before, with the overall statistics of won 13, draw two and lost 24. When defeated, 19 matches have been lost by two or more goals.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Meistaradeildin trip to Víkingur.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting AB Argir as they have only managed to score 6 times from 10 away games in the league. There are big problems for the AB Argir defense as they have conceded 33 goals in 10 away games.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the KÍ - AB Argir 2-0 earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): KÍ won nine games, zero matches ended with a draw and AB Argir has one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: seven / three
