Venue: Umeå Energi Arena SOL (8000 seats)

Umeå prepare for this after their 2-2 result against Dalkurd, a game they learned a lot from. How will they do against Piteå?

Insights:
  • Umeå have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
  • Piteå have failed to keep a clean sheet in all their away matches.

Piteå could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Ettan: North game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Hudiksvall. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

This stadium uses artifical turf, unlike Piteå's home stadium. The visitors last 27 games on artifical turf have ended in 10 wins, 7 draws and 10 losses.

Umeå form and stats

Umeå have been very solid at home in the Ettan: North so far, with 15 points collected from 6 matches (5-0-1). This has contributed greatly to their 3rd position in the table. Nine out of nine points from the last three home games for Umeå, and the home supporters are ready to scream their lungs out to keep the winning streak alive.

The home team returns to Umeå Energi Arena SOL after being equal after 90 minutes with Dalkurd (placed 4th) on their last time out; the Ettan: North game ended 2-2. J. Lundbäck was able to secure the draw 2-2 in the game against Dalkurd after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

Previous to that game, a home match hosting IFK Luleå in a game that was won 1-0.

Umeå are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found four matches and the win/draw/lost stats: Won three, drew one and lost zero.

The manager T. Nordström will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to IFK Luleå in only three days.

Umeå are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 6 games. Defensively Umeå have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (3 in 6 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Piteå form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Piteå so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-4 (win-draw-lose). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Piteå are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Piteå are travelling again after losing away to Hudiksvall in their previous match (1-2). Late heartbreak for Piteå in the Hudiksvall match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime.

Before that, Piteå secured a home win against IFK Luleå with the score 3-0.

Piteå find the net regularly in their away games. 7 goals from 6 away fixtures in the league. Piteå have conceded 12 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head
