It's early days in the Meistaradeildin and both NSÍ and ÍF are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.

It's no vacation for neither NSÍ nor ÍF as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

NSÍ form and stats

NSÍ have only played one Meistaradeildin game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 8 wins, 0 draws and 0 defeats from 8 matches.

NSÍ faced defeat in their previous match, away at Víkingur (0-1). A strong away win before that one, visiting EB / Streymur and winning 3-0.

Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at P. Knudsen for missing a penalty kick versus Víkingur in the 22nd minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

NSÍ has scored 3 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

ÍF have the goal stats of 2-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
