Insights:
  • Lund have not yet lost a game at home.
  • Norrby have the most dropped points from leading position (8) in Ettan: South

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Norrby 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 8-3-10 (win-draw-loss) from 21 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.
