Season ticket holders at Kórinn haven’t seen too many victories this season, with HK languishing in the 10th position so far. The guesting ÍA will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for HK and ÍA.
HK form and stats
3-0-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Pepsideild numbers at home for HK so far this season.
The spoils were shared in HK's previous game, also at home. Visiting ÍA (placed 8th) travelled back with a draw after a 2-2 scoreline. Heartbreak before that as HK lost 1-2 at Valur (after extra-time)'s place.
Opportunity lost for HK in the ÍA match as a lead 2-0 was lost and what looked like a victory ended in a draw.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how HK have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found nine matches with the results: Won four, drawn three and lost two.
A decent goal production from HK in their home games so far, with 9 goals from 6 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 10 goals have been conceded.
ÍA form and stats
ÍA, who have the most conceded goals (20) away in Pepsideild, have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Pepsideild, after 2-1-4 (7 played).
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to HK (placed 10th) in their previous outing. The Pepsideild match ended in a draw 2-2. Prior to that match, the ÍA manager J. Guðjónsson faced defeat when travelling to KR and losing 1-4.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found four similar matches played by ÍA in our archives, and the results are: zero wins for ÍA, three draws and one defeat.
With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, ÍA are regular goalscorers on their travels. The opposition has been scoring high and low on ÍA's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 20 goals in 7 travels.
Head 2 Head
HK and ÍA have met before this season: ÍA - HK 2-2. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: two - four - four (HK wins - draws - ÍA wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.HK missing players
