Get ready for a show! Today's main heroes are HK and Grótta, victory is the objective and 1 1/2 hours the length.

  • Grótta have the most clean sheets (5) in Inkasso-Deildin

The visiting Grótta played their last game only four days ago, a Inkasso-Deildin match. That game was also an away game, at Vestri. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

HK form and stats

Home games in the Inkasso-Deildin have been a walk in the park for HK so far, with 15 points won from 6 matches; 5 wins, 0 draws and 1 loss. Two home wins in a row for HK bring valid hopes of a third.

Happy days for HK in their previous game, a fixture away at Selfoss (placed 5th) that ended with a 2-1 victory. Sigurðarson has beaten the opponent goalkeeper in three matches in a row. First-class!

A strong away win before that one, visiting Thróttur Vogar and winning 2-1.

Scoring bonanza? We don't know about this one, but we do know that 8 of the 10 most recent league games with this team has had three goals or more.

HK are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (16 goals in 6 games).

Grótta form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Grótta so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-4 (win-draw-lose). The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Brazell, the Grótta manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Grótta are travelling again after losing away to Vestri in their previous match (1-3).

A home win before that, celebrating 3-0 vs Selfoss.

Grótta have conceded 11 goals in these games.
