Only a few games have been played in the Allsvenskan so far, with Falkenberg placed 15th and Sirius sitting in the 5th position.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Allsvenskan game only four days ago.
Falkenberg form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Falkenberg's two home games so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Falcon Alkoholfri Arena. Falkenberg has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager H. Eklund and the players.The fans are hoping that Falkenberg will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 3-4 away loss in the Allsvenskan game against Norrköping. Before that game, the home loss against Häcken with the scoreline 0-3.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Falkenberg have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found three matches with the results: Won 1n Drawn 1 Lost 1.
Early season goal statistics from Falkenberg's 2 home games: 1 goal, 3 conceded.
Sirius form and stats
Things could have gone better for Sirius in their away games, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.The manager H. Rydström was unhappy after their last game, a Allsvenskan match played at their home ground Falcon Alkoholfri Arena. Sirius suffered a 0-1 loss to Malmö FF. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against AIK wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Sirius playing away and similar expectations, we found one relevant match. Results were 0 Sirius wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat.
After this away game Sirius return home for a Allsvenskan game against Elfsborg. That game is only three sleeps after this.
It's early days yet, but Sirius has scored 3 and conceded 2 goals from their travels so far (2 games).
