Varberg BoIS form and stats

Varberg are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Häcken. Andersson had a busy but productive day in the Häcken match. Despite making seven saves the loss could not be prevented.
In the match before that, Varberg BoIS hosted Mjallby and drew the game 0-0.This is expected to be a close game, with Varberg BoIS perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Varberg BoIS as a small favourite), we find five games. Varberg BoIS has won two of these, drawn two and lost one.
Varberg aren't scoring a lot here at Varberg Energi Arena in the league, with only 2 goals from 3 games.
Sirius form and stats
The Allsvenskan season is young and Sirius have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. It's a growing despair in Sirius as they have recorded three consecutive losses.
Sirius aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 348 league minutes without a goal. den Hurk (own goal) was the last player to find the net.
Sirius play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-4 to Djurgården (placed 7th). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Djurgården was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind. Midfielder Zeidan was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 6.93. Zeidan hit four key passes and had 48 successful passes (of 56 total).
The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-3 defeat against Hammarby.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 seven relevant matches. Results were two Sirius wins, four draws and one defeat.
Sirius have conceded 7 goals in these games.
