Another interesting game in the Pepsideild. Stjarnan is in the 3rd position after playing five matches. They welcome Víkingur Reykjavík who are placed 4th after eight games.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
This pitch has artifical turf, which is not Víkingur Reykjavík's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artifical turf Víkingur Reykjavík have performed like this: Played twelve matches resulting in 4 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats with the goal stats 24-27 (scored/conceded).
Stjarnan form and stats
As mentioned below, Stjarnan are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 2 Pepsideild games.
A good away victory last time out for Stjarnan, who won 2-1 against ÍA (placed 8th). Before that, Stjarnan had a home game versus HK which ended with a victory 4-1.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Stjarnan have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won five times, drawn one and lost zero.
The manager Ó. Jóhannesson will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Víkingur Reykjavík in only three days.
Early season league goal statistics from Stjarnan's 2 home games: 6 goals, 2 conceded.
Víkingur Reykjavík form and stats
The visitors are W1-D2-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Pepsideild.
Reykjavík are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at Grótta (placed 11th). That result followed a home victory 6-2 versus ÍA.
Reykjavík are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is two wins, zero draws and three defeats. From a total of five matches.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Stjarnan in just three days.
The visitors have scored 3 goals from 4 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's not easy to score on Reykjavík as they have only conceded 3 goals from these away games.
Head 2 Head
