ÍA form and stats
3 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what ÍA have to build on here at Norðurálsvöllurinn in the Pepsideild.
ÍA enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at ÍR's place. The match ended 3-1 with G. Tyrfingsson, G. Unnarsson and Þ. Þórðarson scoring.
Previous to that game, a Pepsideild home match hosting Leiknir Reykjavík in a game that was won 3-1.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 ÍA have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won five, drawn zero and lost two.
ÍA has scored 14 league goals at home this season, in 10 matches. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. ÍA have conceded 16 from these games.
Fylkir form and stats
Fylkir have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Pepsideild, after 0-4-6 (10 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Fylkir have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the HK game.
The attacking players of Fylkir have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 436 minutes.
Home advantage was not enough for Fylkir in their previous game, as they lost their Iceland Cup-match, hosting Víkingur Reykjavík (after extra-time), 0-1.
It was a Pepsideild defeat before that one as the away game against KA wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Fylkir playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were three Fylkir wins, one draw and two defeats.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Fylkir as they have only managed to score 6 times from 10 away games in the league. For Fylkir, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
