Sandviks form and stats

Sandviks have played 6 Division 2: Norrland games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-0-3 (wins-draws-losses). When Sandviks hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Umeå FC Akademi, Bergnasets, Sandviks and Stöde), they have won 2 of 2 matches! Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Sandviks with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Algarna game, 27 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Sandviks lost their last game at IFK Östersund (placed 6th) after a 0-2 scoreline.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Ytterhogdal (0-6).

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Sandviks handle that role? We have found 7 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 3 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (14 in 6 games), Sandviks's attacking play is working. As for conceded goals, Sandviks's unpleasant statistic is 15 goals surrendered.

Sund form and stats

2-1-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Sund in their Division 2: Norrland matches away.

Home advantage was not enough for Sund in their previous game as they lost hosting Friska Viljor, 2-4. A stark raving crazy game with plenty of goals last time out for Sund, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that fixture, will this match be as exciting?

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Algarna at their stadium, the result 2-0.

The visitors have scored 5 goals from 6 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Sund have conceded 10 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
