Helsingborg form and stats

6-2-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Superettan numbers at home for Helsingborg so far this season.

It's back home for Helsingborg, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Falkenberg away with the result 4-1. A. van den Hurk (2) and A. Kaied (2) found the net in that victory.

Ahead of that match, Helsingborg lost 1-2 at home to GIF Sundsvall.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Helsingborg matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, zero draws and zero defeats (from three games).

GAIS form and stats

The visitors are W4-D1-L7 on the road this term. That's in the Superettan. Recent form does not give GAIS much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Helsingborg will be a tough nut to crack.

The manager S. Jacobsson was unhappy after their last game, a Superettan match played at their home ground Gamla Ullevi. GAIS suffered a 2-3 loss to AFC Eskilstuna (placed 11th).

A loss against Varnamo was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of GAIS when being an outsider away as they are today, we find seven matches with the visitors losing five times, drawing one and winning one game.

GAIS have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 12 league away games 12 goals have been scored. 15 goals have been conceded by GAIS in these games.

Head 2 Head

GAIS - Helsingborg 0-1 was the story when these two teams formerly played each other, also in this season. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: seven - three - zero (Helsingborg wins - draws - GAIS wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.
