The visiting Halmstad side should be favourites in this visit to Norrby, as the away team holds a 22 point advantage from their 23 league games this season.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Superettan.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Halmstad have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 8-1-3 (win-draw-loss) from twelve matches.
Norrby form and stats
When playing at home in the Superettan, Norrby have managed 3 wins, 3 draws and suffered 5 defeats from 11 games. Game days at Borås Arena have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Norrby as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.
An away draw last time out for Norrby, facing GAIS in a game that ended 3-3. Before that game, the home loss against Öster with the scoreline 0-2.
As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
There will be little rest for Norrby after this match as they are travelling to Akropolis for a Superettan game in only four days.
Norrby are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 11 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Norrby have conceded 14 goals.
