The league table in Superettan tells a story about these teams so far, with Degerfors leading Dalkurd by 20 points. Match preview to follow:
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Superettan. Thankfully the previous game, versus Jönköpings Södra, was also a home game here at Stora Valla. The away team is better rested.
Degerfors form and stats
Degerfors, who have the most scored goals (37) in Superettan, have performed here at Stora Valla this season with 7 wins from 9 Superettan matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 0 games and lost 2.
A nice win for Degerfors last time playing, versus Jönköpings Södra. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-2 with V. Edvardsen, V. Dahlström, G. Granath and J. Bertilsson scoring for the victors. In the game before, an away victory match versus Halmstad with a 4-1 scoreline.
As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
Degerfors can score goals in their home matches. After 9 league matches they have found the net 22 times. From these home matches, Degerfors have conceded only 8 goals.
Dalkurd form and stats
Dalkurd have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Superettan, after 1-3-5 (9 played). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Dalkurd's last three away games as they have all been lost.
L. Selmani was the last player to score for the away team. Dalkurd haven't scored a league goal in the last 199 minutes.
Dalkurd's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Umeå that finished 0-0. Prior to that match, the Dalkurd manager P. Olausson faced defeat when travelling to Västerås SK and losing 0-1.
A quick return to home after this game, as Dalkurd are hosting Brage in the Superettan only four days away.
Dalkurd find the net regularly in their away games. 9 goals from 9 away fixtures in the league. Dalkurd have conceded 15 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Dalkurd - Degerfors 1-2. Head-2-head stats last seven meetings: three - three - one (Degerfors wins - draws - Dalkurd wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.Top Goalscorers
