HK vs KA betting preview: Even match expected

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 KA.

This pitch has artificial turf, which is not KA's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artificial turf KA have performed like this: Played eleven matches resulting in 6 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats with the goal stats 20-19 (scored/conceded).

HK form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what HK have to build on here at Kórinn.

The HK supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host KA in Pepsideild and win 2-1. In the game before, an away victory match versus Breidablik with a 2-1 scoreline.

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 four matches with the results: Won 1 Drawn 2 Lost 1.

HK are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home, having created 8 goals in 6 matches. HK have conceded 7 in these home matches.

KA form and stats

KA have only collected 3 points from their away games after 1-0-6 (7 played). It's looking increasingly bleak for KA who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Grindavík was the last time a defeat was avoided. It's all red in the travel logs of KA, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team.

Two away games in a row for KA, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-2 versus HK in the Pepsideild. Prior to that match, the KA manager Ó. Flóventsson faced defeat when travelling to Valur and losing 1-3.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found five similar matches played by KA in our archives, and the results are: 1 win for KA, 2 draws and 2 defeats.

KA find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 9 goals from 7 away fixtures. KA have conceded 15 goals in these games.
