Competition: Norway 2. Division
Date: Sun 12.May
Match begins: 12:00 (UTC)

It's early days in the 2. Division and the teams are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

This pitch has artificial turf, which is not Sotra's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artificial turf Sotra have performed like this: Played two matches resulting in 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat with the goal stats 5-4 (scored/conceded). Sotra have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Alta form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Alta's two home games so far this season, having collected 4 points.

Alta lost their last game at Kjelsås after a 0-2 scoreline. In the preceding match a 3-0 victory visiting Porsanger.

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 Alta have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found one game) they have won 1 time, drawn 0 and lost 0.

Alta has the goal stats of 4-1 (for/against) from 2 fixtures.

Sotra form and stats

Sotra are doing rather OK so far in their away games, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).

Two away games in a row for Sotra, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-3 versus Fram in the 2. Division. Before that one, a nice away victory 4-2 at Lysekloster.

4 goals so far away for Sotra, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 4. All from 2 matches.
