Struggling Vídir will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Njardvík in the upcoming league round. It’s 10th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
It's no vacation for neither Vídir nor Njardvík 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.
Relegation threatens Vídir who should definitely be looking for some points here. Njardvík are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.
Vídir form and stats
With {2 2. Deild wins}, 1 draw and 5 defeats from their home games, Vídir, who have the fewest scored goals (20) in 2. Deild, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Vídir are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Nesfisk-völlurinn, having lost their two previous games here.
Vídir's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Njardvík (placed 4th). Preceding that match was the home game against Selfoss that was lost 1-4.
Vídir are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 8 games. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Vídir with 18 goals conceded in these matches.
Njardvík form and stats
Njardvík's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Njardvík collect 20 points from their 9 away matches in the 2. Deild. 6 victories and 2 draws have created these points (and only 1 defeat). The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Kórdrengir game have they lost an away game, meaning Njardvík has taken points from seven away matches in a row.
It's the second away game in a row for Njardvík, but there's smiles all around after the 2-1 victory versus Vídir (placed 10th) in the 2. Deild last time out. A loss against IR was the result prior to that, in a home game.
The Njardvík manager R. Vilbergsson has got the team scoring on the road, with 19 away goals in 9 league matches. Njardvík have conceded 12 goals in these away matches.
