Falkenberg form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Superettan game of the season here at Falcon Alkoholfri Arena. Last season these fans witnessed 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses from Falkenberg's 15 home games. With Falkenberg having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager H. Eklund.

Falkenberg faced defeat in their previous match, away at Oster (1-2). Before that match, a win away at Brage.

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

Early season league goal statistics from Falkenberg's 1 home game: 0 goals, 1 conceded.
