Insights:
  • Gefle have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Gefle have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Piteå have scored away.

This should be an engrossing fixture with lots of fun and bustle as both sides are well revitalized since they last saw competitive action. Let's get started!

This pitch has artifical turf, which is not Piteå's familiar surface at their own stadium. When appearing on artifical turf Piteå have performed like this: Played 26 matches taking 10 wins, 5 draws and 11 defeats with the goal numbers 43-43 (scored/conceded).

Relegation threatens Gefle who should definitely be looking for some points here. Piteå are struggling to avoid relegation.

The home team returns to Gavlevallen after being equal after 90 minutes with IF Karlstad (placed 4th) on their last time out; the Ettan: North game ended 2-2.

Before that game, the 3-2 home victory against Hudiksvall.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Gefle's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played six games, won two matches, drawn two and lost two.

Piteå form and stats

There's been little loot from Piteå's travels as they have only collected 12 points from 13 away games in the Ettan: North. Piteå only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws.

Piteå's previous game was their home loss versus Dalkurd (0-3).

Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus IF Karlstad.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Piteå playing away, we found four games. Results were one away win, one draw and two home wins.

The attacking power of Piteå when travelling is not overwhelming with 11 goals scored from 13 league matches away.
