Brage form and stats

3-2-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Superettan numbers at home for Brage so far this season.

Brage are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Trelleborg.

Ahead of that match, Brage won a home game hosting Landskrona (1-0).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Brage have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 16 games) they have won eight times, drawn five and lost three.

Brage are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 9 games. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Brage have conceded 12 goals.

GAIS form and stats

There's been little loot from GAIS's travels as they have only collected 10 points from 10 away games in the Superettan. GAIS only have 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 1 draw.

It might be tough going out on the road again for GAIS, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-2 versus Landskrona (placed 4th).

Before that one, a nice away victory 4-3 at Vasalund.

GAIS are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is five wins, one draw and five defeats. From a total of eleven matches.

The attacking power of GAIS when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 10 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 11 goals have been conceded by GAIS in these games. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

This was the end result when the sides played each other previously this season; GAIS - Brage 0-2. As for the last nine games between these two teams, there's four Brage victories, four draws and one GAIS win. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, six matches with two goals or less.
