Competition: Sweden Superettan
Competition: Thu 13.August
Match begins: 17:00 (UTC)
Venue: Umeå Energi Arena SOL (8000 seats)

Umeå hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 10 points and a 14th position in the Superettan table. Visiting Örgryte holds 9th place with 14 pts.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Superettan game only four days ago.

3-3-3 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Örgryte when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those nine matches are 9-10 (scored/conceded).

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Umeå form and stats

Umeå have played 5 Superettan games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-2-2 (wins-draws-losses).

Umeå are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Jonkopings Sodra. Ahead of that match, Umeå lost 1-2 at home to Dalkurd.

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 Umeå have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found four matches with the results: Won two, drawn one and lost one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Umeå as they are travelling to their away game against Västerås SK in the Superettan. That match is three days after this one.
