Season ticket holders at Vikingavallen haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Frej languishing in the 15th position so far. The guesting Västerås SK will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Frej form and stats

Frej's struggle is real here at Vikingavallen with only 8 points collected from 9 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly 1-5-3. With seven home games in a row without a win, the Frej fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Öster game long ago, can be stopped today.

The home supporters saw a 1-1 draw versus Västerås SK in the Superettan last time out and are looking for a win here. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Trelleborg (0-1).

This is expected to be a close game, with Frej perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Frej as a small favourite), we find seven games. Frej has won 3 of these, drawn 4 and lost 0.

The Frej fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 12 in 9 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 17 goals have been conceded.

Västerås SK are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at Frej. A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Dalkurd.

Västerås SK has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches this season, 16 goals from 10 games. Västerås SK have conceded 11 goals in these away matches.
