Östersunds FK form and stats

Östersunds FK's results here at Jämtkraft Arena in the Allsvenskan have been very modest with 3 victories, 2 draws and 8 defeats. When Östersunds FK hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Degerfors, Östersunds FK, Halmstad, Sirius and Örebro), they have won 2 of 3 matches!

Stress levels are on the rise for Östersunds's attacking players as they have now played 216 minutes without scoring in a league game. M. Stolt was their last goal scorer.

No payout for Östersunds FK in their previous match, an away game at AIK that ended in defeat 0-3. Östersunds's goalkeeper Aly Keita was extremely busy against AIK, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning ten saves. The goalie Aly Keita was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 8.45 out of ten. Keita stopped the opponent with ten saves.

Heartbreak before that as Östersunds lost 0-3 at Varberg's place.

Östersunds are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 13 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Östersunds FK have conceded 20 from these games.
