Only the second game in the Inkasso-Deildin for these teams and it's all to play for here at Leiknisvöllur as Leiknir Reykjavík welcomes Vestri. Check out this preview!

The hosts Leiknir Reykjavík saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Iceland Cup. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at KA.

Reykjavík's stadium, Leiknisvöllur, has a artifical turf surface. Vestri have grass on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for Vestri when playing on artifical turf; 2 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses from nine matches. They have scored 11 goals in these games and conceded 24.

Leiknir Reykjavík form and stats

In their previous game, the manager S. Höskuldsson led his Leiknir Reykjavík to a defeat in the Iceland Cup match away at KA. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Leiknisvöllur. A strong away win before that one, visiting Thróttur Reykjavík and winning 3-1.

Reykjavík were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Last season, Leiknir Reykjavík's league statistics were 12 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses, resulting in a 3rd position in the Inkasso-Deildin. Over these 22 matches they scored 37 goals and conceded 28. Playing at home last season Leiknir Reykjavík managed 7-1-3 (win-draw-lost) with 19 goals and 14 conceded.

Vestri form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Inkasso-Deildin ended in defeat. Last season Vestri had these away match statistics: Played 4; won 2, drew 0 and lost 2. Vestri seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

There might be some fixture complaints from Vestri as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Inkasso-Deildin match against Víkingur Ólafsvík (0-2). Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Thróttur Reykjavík's place.

It's early days yet, but Vestri has scored 0 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).

Let's have a look at how Vestri performed last season in the 2. Deild: They landed a 5th position in the league table after playing out 4 victories, 0 draws and 3 defeats. In total they scored 10 and conceded 10 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 0 and lost 2 with 5/6 goals scored/conceded.
