Competition: Sweden Division 1: North
Date: Sat 02.November
Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: Boden Arena

Boden hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 28 points and a 14th position in the Division 1: North table. Visiting Sylvia holds 9th place with 38 pts.

It's no vacation for neither Boden nor Sylvia 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.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1000 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Boden are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. For Sylvia most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.

Boden form and stats

Boden's results here at Boden Arena in the Division 1: North have been very modest with 2 victories, 5 draws and 7 defeats. With a nice streak brewing from their home games, Boden are also looking for their fifth consecutive victory regardless of location. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Boden Arena.

Boden's previous game was a Division 1: North match also played at home, ending 5-0 versus Sylvia (placed 9th). The home side are looking to build on that result. A strong away win before that one, visiting Rynninge and winning 2-1.

As mentioned above, Boden "killed" Sylvia in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Boden matches with similar probabilities have ended with 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeats (from two games).

Boden are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 15 goals in 14 attempts. Boden have conceded 24 from these games.

Sylvia form and stats

There's been little loot from Sylvia's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 14 away games in the Division 1: North. Sylvia only have 3 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 2 draws. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Sylvia are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Two away games in a row for Sylvia, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-5 versus Boden in the Division 1: North. A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Linköping City.

Sylvia lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-5 beating and focus on this one.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Sylvia playing away, we found four games. Results were 1 away win, 0 draws and 3 home wins.

Sylvia have scored 17 goals on their travels this season, from 14 away games in the league. Sylvia are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 17 goals in these matches.

Head 2 Head

The two sides played each other earlier this season: Sylvia - Boden 4-2. Last three meetings between the teams: Boden won 1, Sylvia won 2 and 0 draws. 2 games with over 2,5 goals, 1 match with two goals or less.
