Jönköpings Södra form and stats

Things could have gone better for Jönköpings Södra in their Superettan away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

Book (2), Marić, Nordström and Fazal scored in Jönköpings Södra's previous match, the home game against Utsikten that ended 5-2. As you can tell from the result, the match against Utsikten was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

A 2-4 loss hosting Landskrona before that.
