Alta form and stats

Alta are steadily winning 2. Division games and points here at Finnmarkshallen. 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat is the summary from 10 games.

The points were shared in Alta's previous game, also at home. Visiting Åsane (placed 3rd) travelled back with a point after a 2-2 scoreline. Before that match, a win away at Sotra.

This is expected to be a close game, with Alta perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Alta as a small favourite), we find three games. Alta has won 0 of these, drawn 1 and lost 2.

Åsane form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most scored goals (47) in 2. Division, on their 2. Division travels is 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats.

Åsane are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 2-2 draw at Alta (placed 5th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Grorud wasn't a success with a 3-4 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Åsane playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were 2 Åsane wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats.
