Struggling Grbalj will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Igalo in the upcoming league round. It’s 8th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

It's no vacation for neither Grbalj nor Igalo as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Grbalj form and stats

Three Second League home games done for Grbalj, who are not happy collecting 1 point from these matches. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Grbalj, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 232 minutes without scoring a league goal. N. Carevic was the last player to find the net.

The Grbalj fans got no joy from their last match, a Second League game also here at Stadion Donja Sutvara: A 0-2 defeat against Igalo (placed 3rd). Preceding that match was the home game against Kom that was lost 0-2.

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 Grbalj have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won one time, drawn two and lost four.

The lack of attacking qualities in Grbalj means that they have only scored 1 goal in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 5 goals have been conceded.

Igalo form and stats

Things could have gone better for Igalo in their Second League away matches, but 5 points from 3 games is all right.

It's the second away game in a row for Igalo, but there's smiles all around after the 2-0 victory versus Grbalj (placed 8th) in the Second League last time out. Before that, Igalo secured a home win against Berane with the score 2-1.

We have checked recent matches where Igalo have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those four games were one victory, three draws and zero defeats.

Igalo have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 3 league away games 3 goals have been scored. Igalo are tight as a drum on their travels, having allowed the opposition only 1 goal away.
