The bragging rights belong to GAIS at this point, with the 1st spot in the Ettan: South table and anticipating the visit of Vänersborgs IF (who are in 9th).
- GAIS have the most points (17) at home in Ettan: South
- GAIS have created more than twice as many corners as Vänersborgs IF.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Vänersborgs IF have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 8-3-5 (win-draw-loss) from 16 matches.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
