Kongsvinger hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 13 points and a 16th position in the Obos-Ligaen table. Visiting KFUM holds 10th place with 20 pts.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Kongsvinger form and stats

With 1 Obos-Ligaen win, 2 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Kongsvinger, who have the fewest scored goals (19) in Obos-Ligaen, are certainly not brimming with confidence. It's trouble wherever Kongsvinger are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. The Kongsvinger manager M. Lehkosuo might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Kongsvinger faced defeat in their previous match, away at Sogndal (2-5). Preceding that match was a defeat to HamKam (1-2).

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

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

Kongsvinger aren't scoring a lot here at Gjemselund Stadion in the league, with only 6 goals from 8 games. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Kongsvinger have conceded 14 from these games.

KFUM form and stats

There's been little loot from KFUM's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 8 away games in the Obos-Ligaen. KFUM only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 2 draws. KFUM has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

KFUM won their last game, 1-0 versus Sandnes Ulf played at home. Preceding that game, the 1-4 loss visiting Stjørdals-Blink's place.

Y. Moula came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Sandnes Ulf last time out, making the manager J. Isnes feel like a tactical genius.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with KFUM playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were two KFUM wins, four draws and two defeats.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far KFUM have scored 8 goals in 8 league games away. For KFUM, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head
