Brand new|Fresh|New season, fresh|new potential|opportunities: Here's what you should|need to|must know before the HK - Selfoss fixture!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Selfoss 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 3-0-8 (win-draw-loss) from eleven matches.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
