There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with Stjarnan leading Grótta by 9 points.
Stjarnan and Grótta should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Stjarnan form and stats
Seven points from three Pepsideild home games is a great start for Stjarnan, who are hoping to build on that form here at Samsung völlurinn.
Stjarnan are returning here after visiting Vikingur Reykjavik in a Iceland Cup game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. H. Halldórsson and E. Atlason scored the goal(s). Preceding that game was the home draw versus Vikingur Reykjavik that ended 1-1.
Stjarnan are traveling soon after this match as the Pepsideild match at FH awaits in three days.
The Stjarnan manager Ó. Jóhannesson has got the team scoring with 7 from 3 home games in the league. Stjarnan have conceded 3 in these home matches.
Grótta form and stats
1 win, 0 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Grótta playing as the away team in the Pepsideild this season. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Grótta are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Grótta lost away at Breidablik (0-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. It was a Pepsideild defeat before that one as the away game against FH wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
The visitors have scored 4 goals from 5 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Grótta have conceded 8 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
