The visiting Stenungsund side should be favourites in this visit to Vårgårda, as the away team holds a 8 point advantage from their six league games this season.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Division 2: Norra Gotaland game only three days ago. That game, against Ahlafors, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Stenungsund.

Vårgårda form and stats

Vårgårda have played three Division 2: Norra Gotaland home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Vårgårda with their five defeats in a row. Not since the IF Karlstad II game, 82 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Three consecutive losses here at Tånga Hed is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

Vårgårda are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-3 away versus Gauthiod. Before that game, the home loss against Vanersborgs FK with the scoreline 1-4.

Vårgårda have scored 2 league goals here from 3 matches, not a lot. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Vårgårda with 7 goals conceded in these matches.
