Soccer betting preview: Kramfors-Alliansen welcomes Sandviks in what could be a tight duel

Kramfors-Alliansen and Sandviks should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Sandviks have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 1-1-6 (win-draw-loss) from eight matches.

Kramfors-Alliansen form and stats

When playing at home, Kramfors-Alliansen, who have the fewest scored goals (2) at home in Division 2: Norrland, have managed 0 wins, 1 draw and suffered 4 defeats from 5 games. All in all it has been a very rough period for Kramfors-Alliansen who hasn’t won a game in their last 13 attempts. Their previous win was against Täfteå. The home stadium (Kramfors IP A-plan) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Kramfors-Alliansen it's been a house of straw as the last five games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?

The fans are hoping that Kramfors-Alliansen will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the Division 2: Norrland game against IFK Östersund. Preceding that match was a defeat to IFK Luleå (1-2).
