This could be an interesting match as Norrby have their presumed home advantage while Degerfors are ahead 20 points in the Superettan table.
The hosts Norrby saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Superettan. Thankfully the previous game, versus GIF Sundsvall, was also a home game here at Borås Arena. The away team is better rested.
Norrby's stadium, Borås Arena, has a artifical turf surface. Degerfors have grass on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for Degerfors when playing on artifical turf; 7 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses from twelve matches. They have scored 28 goals in these games and conceded 15.
Norrby form and stats
Norrby have played 9 Superettan games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-3-3 (wins-draws-losses).
Norrby's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus GIF Sundsvall (placed 7th). Before that, Norrby played out a draw 1-1 when visiting Ljungskile.
The Norrby fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 9 matches. On the other hand, Norrby have conceded 10 goals.
Degerfors form and stats
The away team, who have the most scored goals (45) in Superettan, have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 5 wins, 4 draws and only 0 losses in the Superettan. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Västerås SK game have they lost an away game, meaning Degerfors has taken points from nine away matches in a row. The fact that Degerfors have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.
It's the second away game in a row for Degerfors, but there's smiles all around after the 6-0 victory versus Umeå (placed 14th) in the Superettan last time out. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Dalkurd.
As you can tell from the results above, Degerfors was very dominant against Umeå, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 6-0 (!) with M. Astvald, V. Edvardsen, A. Carlén and J. Bertilsson (3) providing the goals. It's hard not to mention J. Bertilsson's lethal finishing against Umeå. three goals were a big reason for the important victory.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Degerfors manager T. Solberg as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Stockholm Internazionale.
The Degerfors manager T. Solberg has got the team scoring on the road, with 21 away goals in 9 league matches. Degerfors are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 7 times in 9 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
