ÍA welcomes Grindavík in this Fotbolti.Net Cup Cup A Group Stage. Read on for key stats and predictions!
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.
ÍA form and stats
ÍA was eliminated in the 3rd place final last season in the Fotbolti.Net Cup Cup A.Overall Pepsideild stats at home this season for ÍA are 5-1-5 (wins-draw-losses).
The home supporters saw a 2-2 draw versus Stjarnan in the Fotbolti.Net Cup Cup A last time out and are looking for a win here. Preceding that match was the home Pepsideild game against Vikingur Reykjavik that was lost 1-5.
ÍA are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 16 goals in 11 games. ÍA have conceded 17 from these games.
Grindavík form and stats
Grindavík was sent out of Fotbolti.Net Cup Cup A in the 5th place final last season.The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Grindavík so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 0-5-6 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 18 away games in a row.
Two away games in a row for Grindavík, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-4 versus Grotta in the Fotbolti.Net Cup Cup A. It was a Pepsideild defeat before that one as the away game against FH wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.
Grindavík lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Fotbolti.Net Cup Cup A trip to Stjarnan.
The attacking power of Grindavík when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 11 league matches away. Grindavík have conceded 17 goals in these games.
