Division 1: North prediction: Home win expected when Sollentuna takes on Boden

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Boden have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 10-5-9 (win-draw-loss) from 24 matches. Boden have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Sollentuna form and stats

With 1 win, 3 draws and 2 defeats from their home games, Sollentuna are certainly not brimming with confidence. Sollentuna has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager C. Mattiasson and the players. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Sollentuna, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

The Sollentuna crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 2-3 to Boden here at Sollentunavallen in a Division 1: North match. Preceding that match was a defeat to Akropolis (0-2).

The Sollentuna fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 9 goals in 6 matches. On the other hand, Sollentuna have conceded 6 goals.

Boden form and stats

There's been little loot from Boden's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 6 away games. Boden, who have the fewest scored goals (4) in Division 1: North, only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 0 draws.

It's the second away game in a row for Boden, but there's smiles all around after the 3-2 victory versus Sollentuna in the Division 1: North last time out. Before that, Boden travelled to Team Thoren and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.

With the home team given a winning probability of about 80% by the bookmakers, any point(s) for the visitors would be a surprise. Checking earlier matches with similar odds with Boden as the away team, we found four results. Statistics from these were 1 away win, 0 draws and 3 defeats. The outsiders lost 3 of these games by at least two goals.

Boden are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels and have only managed 1 goal from 6 away games. The Boden defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 19 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

The dueling parties have met before this season: Sollentuna - Boden 2-3. Head-2-head stats last two meetings: 0 - 1 - 1 (Sollentuna wins - draws - Boden wins). As for goals, 1 match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 1 had two or less.
