Lillestrøm faced defeat in their previous match, away at Sarpsborg 08 (1-3). The hosts have an in-form goalscorer in Olsen, having bagged a goal in four games in a row. Thompson (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.85/10. Thompson hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 26 successful passes (of 28 total).

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 Lillestrøm have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 11 games) they have won 5 times, drawn 3 and lost 3.

Sports gamblers, take note: A review of the 10 most recent league matches reveals that 9 of them had at least one goal from each team.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (24 in 10 games), Lillestrøm's attacking play is working. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Lillestrøm defense is not exactly impregnable. 17 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
