The Pepsideild league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Fylkir and KA are placed 6th and 10th respectively.

KA could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Pepsideild game only four sleeps ago.

4-1-7 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for KA when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those twelve matches are 18-24 (scored/conceded).

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Aron Snær Friðriksson not having conceded a league goal in 190 minutes.

Happy days for Fylkir in their previous game, a Pepsideild match away at Fjölnir (placed 11th) that ended with a 2-1 victory. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Grotta in a game that was won 2-0.

Fylkir are traveling soon after this match as the Pepsideild match at FH awaits in four days.
