Insights:
  • Grótta have not yet lost a game at home.
  • Fram have the most scored goals (24) in Inkasso-Deildin

It's no vacation for neither Grótta nor Fram 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.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Fram have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 1-0-5 (win-draw-loss) from six matches.

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

Two away games in a row for Fram, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-3 versus ÍA in the Iceland Cup.

That result followed a home victory 5-1 versus Throttur Reykjavik in the Inkasso-Deildin.
