KA welcome FH for another appealing Pepsideild game here at Dalvíkurvöllur.

Insights:
  • KA have the most clean sheets (3) in Pepsideild

These are hustling days for the home side, as they had a match only four days ago in the Pepsideild. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at KR.

KA form and stats

Perfect Pepsideild season at home so far for KA 2 wins from 2 appearances. KA has recorded two wins in a row here at Dalvíkurvöllur, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.

The KA coach Gretarsson and his pawns return home after a 0-0 draw away versus KR (placed 7th).

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Keflavik in a game that was won 3-2.

This is expected to be a close game, with KA perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with KA as a small favourite), we find four games. KA has won zero of these, drawn three and lost one.

KA are traveling soon after this match as the Pepsideild match at ÍA awaits in four days.

Early season league goal statistics from KA's 2 home games: 4 goals, 2 conceded.

FH form and stats

It's not happening yet for FH on their Pepsideild travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? FH seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

FH's last game was the home draw against Valur (2-2).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Breidablik wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by FH in our archives, and the results are: four wins for FH, two draws and three defeats.

A new game in only four days for FH, the Pepsideild home match versus ÍBV. Busy days.

FH have the goal stats of 1-5 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: one - six - three (KA wins - draws - FH wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), seven had two or less.
