Strømsgodset form and stats

The complete Eliteserien statistics at home this season for Strømsgodset are 6-1-5 (wins-draws-losses).

A nice win for Strømsgodset last time playing, versus Odd. That was also a home game and the match ended 3-1 with Melkersen, Stengel and Andersen scoring for the victors. Sweet to taste a league win after four matches without one.

Prior to that, an away loss at Haugesund.

A decent goal production from Strømsgodset in their home games so far, with 18 goals from 12 league matches. 14 goals have been conceded.

Viking form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Eliteserien travels is 7 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats.

The manager Jensen was unhappy after their last game, played at their home stadium SR-Bank Arena. Viking suffered a 3-4 loss to Tromsø (placed 4th). An insane match with lots of goals last time out for Viking, as mentioned above. 7 goals in total, will this fixture be as exciting? Late heartbreak for Viking in the Tromsø match, as the deciding 3-4 goal came deep into overtime. Attacker Salvesen got a player rating of 7.33 in the game. "Man of the match" Salvesen scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Before that, Viking travelled to Odd and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

The travelling fans enjoy Viking's attacking play in away games, having scored 18 goals in 12 league matches away. As opposed to that, Viking have seen the ball go into their own net 16 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The latest head to head match ended Viking - Strømsgodset 1-1, earlier this season. Head to head numbers (for the last ten meetings): Strømsgodset won two games, five matches ended with a draw and Viking have three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / seven.
