Akranes Preview – Can Akranes secure vital win?

It’s been a tough sequence of fixtures and results for Monday’s hosts, Akranes, as they’ve managed to pick up just one league win out of their last eight matches overall in the Urvalsdeild which also includes losing their last three matches on the trot, but they have a golden opportunity to turn things around against Grotta.

Akranes have also recorded just one home win from their last five matches at Norðurálsvöllurinn which came in the shape of a 3-2 win over Fylkir, but recent loses to KR Reykjavik, Stjarnan and Valur have prevented the hosts from moving out of the lower reaches of the Urvalsdeild.

Nevertheless, wins against Akureyri and Fylkir at least show that Akranes are capable of producing wins and they hold a good record against Grotta as the hosts are unbeaten in each of the previous seven meetings.

Grotta Preview – Can Grotta give themselves a lifeline?

If Akranes have had a tough time of late then Monday’s visitors, Grotta, have been in dire straits as the away side currently sit in the relegation zone, second from bottom in the Urvalsdeild and a significant seven points adrift of Akranes and safety prior to this important clash.

Grotta have managed to scrape up just the single win to date in this seasons IOcelandic top flight campaign which was a surprising 3-0 win away from home at bottom club, Fjolnir, but nine defeats out of their 14 matches played so far this season tells its own story.

The visitors possess a poor away record which stands at 1-1-5 5/12 which includes conceding 2 goals or more in four of these seven away matches along with failing to score in four matches too, so they look to have their work cut out here.
