Insights:
  • ÍR have the most matches under the total-line (8) in 2. Deild

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

ÍR form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what ÍR have to build on here at Hertz völlurinn in the 2. Deild.

Stress levels are on the rise for ÍR's attacking players as they have now played 191 minutes without scoring in a league game. The ÍR goalkeeper is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 194 minutes without conceding a goal in the 2. Deild.

ÍR drew their last game, 0-0 away at Throttur Vogar (placed 1st).

A 0-0 draw away before that, with Leiknir Fáskrúdsfj. the opponent.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for ÍR as they are travelling to their away game against Fjölnir in the Iceland Cup. That match is three days after this one.

Goals decide football matches and ÍR are scoring many of them at home; 12 on target from 6 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 10 goals have been conceded.

Magni form and stats

Playing away, Magni have won 2 games, drawn 3 and suffered 2 defeats in the 2. Deild this season.

Magni won their last game, 4-2 versus Fjardabyggd played at home. As you can tell from the result, the match against Fjardabyggd was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

A home win before that, celebrating 3-1 vs KV.

Magni are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 13 times in 7 away games so far. In the opposite end, Magni have conceded 12 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head
