It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Grindavík and Kórdrengir.

10-4-5 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Kórdrengir 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 19 matches are 29-20 (scored/conceded).

Kórdrengir are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.

Grindavík form and stats

When playing at home in the Inkasso-Deildin, Grindavík have managed 4 wins, 2 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 8 games.

No payout for Grindavík in their previous match, an away game at Grótta that ended in defeat 1-2. Heartbreak for Grindavík in their last match as Grótta's K. Petursson scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

Ahead of that match, Grindavík won a home game hosting Thróttur Reykjavík (2-1).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Grindavík have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found four matches with the results: Won zero, drawn four and lost zero.

A decent goal production from Grindavík in their home games so far, with 15 goals from 8 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.
