Norrby form and stats

Norrby are steadily winning Superettan games and points here at Borås Arena. 5 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats is the summary from 8 games.

Norrby shared the glory with Orgryte in their last match, an away game that ended all square 2-2. Late drama in the game against Orgryte as Norrby were trailing by a goal near the finishing line until J. Brannefalk popped out and made it level in the 90th minute.

Before that game, the home loss against Akropolis with the scoreline 0-1.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Norrby's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played three games, won two matches, drawn one and lost zero.

The Norrby fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 13 goals in 8 league matches. From these home matches, Norrby have conceded only 7 goals.

Vasalund form and stats

There's been little loot from Vasalund's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 9 away games in the Superettan. Vasalund only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 1 draw.

The manager R. Björknesjö was unhappy after their last game, a Superettan match played at their home ground Skytteholms IP. Vasalund suffered a 3-4 loss to GAIS (placed 10th). A loony match with plenty of goals last time out for Vasalund, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?

A 0-0 draw at Helsingborg's stadium before that.

The visiting Vasalund have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 10 goals from 9 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. For Vasalund, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
