Hødd will cross fingers that their home advantage is enough to get at least a point from this rough battle, versus vibrant Start.

Insights:
  • Hødd have the fewest matches over the total-line (12) in Obos-Ligaen
  • Start have the most scored goals in the second half (34) in Obos-Ligaen

Relegation threatens Hødd who should definitely be looking for some points here. Start are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.

It's quite the trip for Start when visiting Hødd as the cities are 800 kilometers apart.

Hødd and Start should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Hødd form and stats

3 victories, 7 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Hødd have to build on here at Høddvoll Stadion in the Obos-Ligaen.

A strong away win for Hødd against Raufoss the last match, as Lillo were on target. What a relief, as that was the first league win after failing to win six consecutive games.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Sogndal that ended 2-2.

At Høddvoll Stadion, Hødd has the goal stats of 14-14 (for/against) from 14 league fixtures.

Start form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Start so far with only 12 points returning home. The records show 2-6-6 (win-draw-lose). With two straight losses from their last two away games, Start are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Impressive finishing from Sanyang and Grundetjern secured the home win 2-0 against Bryne in their previous game.

A 0-2 defeat away at Mjøndalen before that.

Look out: 9 of the last 12 league fixtures featuring this side have seen only one (or no) side scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in sports betting words).

Start are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 16 away goals from 14 games (in the league). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Start have seen the ball go into their own net 20 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

Start have won or drawn the last 5 games (3-2-0) facing Hødd.

Hødd and Start have duelled before this season: Start - Hødd 4-2.
