Ljungskile hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 15 points and a 16th position in the Superettan table. Visiting GAIS holds 9th place with 25 pts.

The hosts Ljungskile saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Svenska Cupen. That game was an away game at Gauthiod, so at least Ljungskile are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Ljungskile form and stats

When playing at home in the Superettan, Ljungskile, who have the most conceded goals (39) in Superettan, have managed 3 wins, 3 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 9 games.

P. Beqaj was the last player to score a league goal for Ljungskile and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Ljungskile haven't scored in 207 minutes.

In their previous game, the manager J. Wålemark led his Ljungskile to a defeat in the Svenska Cupen match away at Gauthiod. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Uddevalla Arena. A Superettan defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Halmstad.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Ljungskile have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won three, drawn one and lost two.

The Ljungskile fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 9 matches. On the other hand, Ljungskile have conceded 13 goals.

GAIS form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for GAIS so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-6 (win-draw-lose).

GAIS have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Mathias Karlsson. It's been 192 minutes since they last conceded in Superettan.

GAIS play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-0 victory visiting Orgryte (placed 8th). That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Västerås SK.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by GAIS in our archives, and the results are: three wins for GAIS, two draws and two defeats.

The attacking power of GAIS when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 10 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. GAIS have conceded 20 goals in these games.
