There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Iceland Cup game only four days ago. That game, against Fylkir, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for KR.

Fram form and stats

Fram have played 4 Pepsideild games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).

No payout for Fram in their previous match, an away game at Fylkir that ended in defeat 1-3. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Magnússon for missing a penalty kick versus Fylkir in the 75th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

Before that, Fram had a home game versus Stjarnan which ended with a victory 2-1.

Both teams on the scoresheet! That has occurred in 7 league fixtures in a row for this club. Could it happen again?

Fram have conceded 7 from these games.

KR form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Pepsideild travels is 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

KR are looking to quickly end their 460 minutes long goal drought in the Pepsideild.

Two travels in a row for KR, whose manager Kristinsson could celebrate last time after the Iceland Cup win against Fylkir.

Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Breidablik.

An interesting fact for sports gamblers contemplating a bet on only one (or no) team scoring in this fixture: This club have played 6 consecutive league matches with just one or no side finding the net.

The attacking power of KR when travelling is not overwhelming with 3 goals scored from 5 league matches away. The KR manager Kristinsson has some worries about the defense as 12 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

KR have not lost in the last 9 games (8-1-0) facing Fram.
