Dalkurd form and stats

When playing at home in the Superettan, Dalkurd have managed 2 wins, 7 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 10 games. The home fans are hungry for more even though Dalkurd have been steadily collecting points here at Studenternas IP through three straight draws.

Dalkurd faced defeat in their previous match, away at Oster (1-2). In the game before, an away victory in the Svenska Cupen match versus IF Karlstad II with a 2-1 scoreline.

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 Dalkurd have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found ten games) they have won five times, drawn three and lost two.

Dalkurd have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Studenternas IP with 15 goals in 10 league matches. 10 goals have been conceded.

Ljungskile form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Ljungskile, who have the most conceded goals (41) in Superettan, so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-8 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.

Ljungskile might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. GAIS proved too strong as Ljungskile slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Uddevalla Arena. Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Gauthiod's place.

Ljungskile are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, two draws and two defeats. From a total of four matches.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Ljungskile as they have only managed to score 9 times from 11 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Ljungskile manager J. Wålemark has some worries about the defense as 26 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

The teams have played each other before this season, with the result Ljungskile - Dalkurd 2-2 entered in the official records.
