Vídir form and stats

Zero (!) 2. Deild points is the sad result after 4 matches here at Nesfisk-völlurinn. Can it change today? It's trouble wherever Vídir are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. The season ticket holders are starting to dread their visits here at Nesfisk-völlurinn, with the home team losing four in a row. They have not avoided a defeat here since the Kordrengir game.

Vídir lost their last game at Völsungur (placed 12th) after a 1-2 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Vídir lost 0-2 at home to Haukar.

There will be little rest for Vídir after this match as they are travelling to Thróttur Vogar for a 2. Deild game in only four days.

Vídir have scored 0 goals here in 4 league matches, a depressing statistic. Vídir have allowed more than three conceded goals on average in their home matches so far.
