Egersund are stalking the top spots while Notodden are more worried about steering clear of relegation. Who wins the prize?

Insights:

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Notodden have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 2-0-6 (win-draw-loss) from eight matches.

This promises to be an entertaining match with lots of fun and energy as both teams are well recovered since they last saw competitive action. Let's go!
