FH form and stats

1 victory, 3 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what FH have to build on here at Kaplakrikavöllur in the Pepsideild. Two draws in a row at home now for FH.

In their previous game, the manager Ó. Jóhannesson led his FH to a defeat in the Pepsideild match away at Valur. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Kaplakrikavöllur.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus KA.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from FH's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won three matches, drawn one and lost zero.

The FH fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 8 goals in 5 league matches. FH have conceded 6 in these home matches.

Fylkir form and stats

Playing away, Fylkir, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Pepsideild, have won 0 games, drawn 3 and suffered 2 defeats in the Pepsideild this season.

Fylkir had fun at their own home (Kaplakrikavöllur) last time out, beating KA 2-1. O. Stefánsson and O. Kjartansson scored.

Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus HK.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Fylkir playing away, we found four games. Results were zero away wins, one draw and three home wins.

Fylkir have scored 5 goals on their travels this season, from 5 away games in the league. The Fylkir manager A. Þórarinsson has some worries about the defense as 10 goals have been conceded in these travels.
