Match begins: 12:30 (UTC)
Venue: Domnarvsvallen (6500 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Brage are in the 6th position while the guesting Umeå worry at 14th.

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.

7-6-11 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Umeå when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 24 matches are 35-37 (scored/conceded).

Brage's last game was hosting Dalkurd (placed 12th) and winning 2-1. A defeat was the result before that one, 2-4 away at Öster.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
