Västerås SK form and stats

Last season, Västerås SK's league statistics were 8 wins, 12 draws and 10 losses, producing 12th position in the Superettan. During these 30 matches they scored 36 goals and gave away 40. Performing as the host team in the previous season Västerås SK delivered 4-7-4 (win-draw-lost) with 20 goals and 21 conceded.

The supporters are hoping that Västerås will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the match against Brommapojkarna (placed 7th).

Preceding that game was the away draw at Helsingborg that finished 2-2.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Västerås SK have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 15 games) they have won six times, drawn four and lost five.

Östersunds FK form and stats

Let's have a look at how Östersunds FK performed last season in the Allsvenskan: They landed a 16th position in the league table after playing out 3 victories, 5 draws and 22 defeats. In total they scored 24 and conceded 59 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 0 - drew 3 and lost 12 with 6/36 goals scored/conceded. Östersunds FK are desperate to end a twelve-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Elfsborg fixture.

Home advantage was not enough for Östersunds FK in their previous game as they lost hosting Skövde AIK, 2-3. Östersunds were so close to getting something from the game against Skövde AIK, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal three minutes into overtime.

A loss against Degerfors was the result prior to that, in a Allsvenskan home game.

Östersunds FK are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, three draws and six defeats. From a total of twelve matches.

Head 2 Head

Stats for the previous ten meetings between these two contenders are: five wins for Västerås SK, three draws and two wins for Östersunds FK. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
