The visiting NSÍ side should be favourites in this visit to TB, as the away team holds a 30 point advantage from their 20 league games this season.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for TB and NSÍ.

TB form and stats

With 1 Meistaradeildin win, 3 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, TB are certainly not brimming with confidence.

F. Obadovic was the last player to score a league goal for TB and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as TB haven't scored in 213 minutes.

TB's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus NSÍ (placed 3rd). Before that, TB drew at home versus KI.

The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on NSÍ to win. Let's see if TB are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: four games found revealing zero TB wins, zero draws and four defeats.

TB has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 5 goals from 11 games. TB have conceded 12 in these home matches.

NSÍ form and stats

The away team, who have the fewest conceded goals (15) in Meistaradeildin, have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 6 wins, 2 draws and only 2 losses in the Meistaradeildin. NSÍ has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.

Two travels in a row for NSÍ, whose manager G. Ståhl could celebrate last time after the Meistaradeildin win against TB. That result followed a home victory 4-1 versus EB / Streymur.

As mentioned earlier, NSÍ will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in four wins (two by two or more goals winning margin), one draw and zero surprising defeats.

NSÍ has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 15 goals from 10 games. NSÍ are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 7 times in 10 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
