No shortage of boom and bust for these contenders this season, placed in positions near the midsection of the Inkasso-Deildin table. Here's the Grindavík - Afturelding latest:

Insights:
  • Grindavík have not yet lost a game at home.
  • Afturelding have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

7-4-11 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Afturelding when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 22 matches are 33-41 (scored/conceded).

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
