Prespa Birlik form and stats

Prespa Birlik's struggle is real here at Heleneholms IP with only 4 points collected from 7 Division 2: Ostra Gotaland games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-1-5.

No payout for Prespa in their previous match, an away game at Olympic that ended in defeat 0-5. Prespa Birlik were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Before that game, the 3-1 home victory against Karlskrona.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Prespa as they are travelling to their away game against Karlshamn in the Division 2: Ostra Gotaland. That match is four days after this one.

The Prespa Birlik fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 7 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.

Solvesborg form and stats

There's been little loot from Solvesborg's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 6 away games in the Division 2: Ostra Gotaland. Solvesborg only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 1 draw. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Solvesborg have lost on their last two travels.

There might be some fixture complaints from Solvesborg as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Division 2: Ostra Gotaland match against IFK Hassleholm (0-6). Solvesborg lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-6 beating and focus on this one.

A home win before that, celebrating 3-2 vs Asarum.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Solvesborg manager D. Nilsson as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Olympic.

Solvesborg has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 9 goals from 6 games. There are big problems for the Solvesborg defense as they have conceded 24 goals in 6 away games.
