It's still early in the Ettan: South season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Eskilsminne - Skövde AIK preview!
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Eskilsminne form and stats
Eskilsminne are yet to win a home game, having collected 1 point from their first two Ettan: South games here at Harlyckans IP.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Eskilsminne, who played 1-1 against Trollhättan. That match was also played at this venue (Harlyckans IP). Prior to that, an away loss at Landskrona.
The manager M. Lindström will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Lund in only four days.
Early season league goal statistics from Eskilsminne's 2 home games: 1 goal, 3 conceded.
Skövde AIK form and stats
The visitors settled for one point in their first Ettan: South away game of the season. During their previous season 15 away games resulted in 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 defeats.
The manager S. Strind was unhappy after their last game, a Ettan: South match played at their home ground Södermalms IP. Skövde suffered a 2-3 loss to Landskrona (placed 3rd). A 2-2 draw at Motala's stadium before that.
Leading 2-0 was not enough for Skövde in their fight with Landskrona last time out. Happy faces soon turned sour as mistakes flourished in what ended up a 2-3 loss.
After this away game Skövde return home for a Ettan: South game against Qviding FIF. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Skövde AIK have the goal stats of 2-2 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
