Brage form and stats

When playing at home in the Superettan, Brage have managed 1 win, 1 draw and suffered 1 defeat from 3 games.

The fans are hoping that Brage will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Superettan game against Jönköpings Södra (placed 7th). Ahead of that match, Brage won a home game hosting Örgryte (3-2).

Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at A. Lundin for missing a penalty kick versus Jönköpings Södra in the 69th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Brage handle that role? We have found nine games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are seven wins, two draws and zero defeats.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Brage as they have a new game in only four days, a Superettan match thankfully also at home. Trelleborg are visiting.

The Brage fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 3 matches. 4 goals have been conceded.

Akropolis form and stats

Playing away, Akropolis have won 1 game, drawn 2 and suffered 1 defeat in the Superettan this season.

It's the second away game in a row for Akropolis, but there's smiles all around after the 3-2 victory versus Halmstad (placed 2nd) in the Superettan last time out. Before that, Akropolis secured a home win against Västerås SK with the score 2-0.

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager G. Christopoulos when P. Åsbrink scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 83rd minute. The end of the last match, against Halmstad, was very satisfying as P. Åsbrink scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

We have checked recent matches where Akropolis have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those four games were one victory, one draw and two defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Akropolis are hosting GAIS in the Superettan only three days away.

Akropolis has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 6 goals from 4 games. As for defending, Akropolis rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 7 goals from these away matches.

Head 2 Head

As for the last six games between these two teams, there's one Brage victory, two draws and three Akropolis wins. Over/under statistics; four of these games ended with three goals or more, two matches with two goals or less.
