The manager V. Skogheim ready whip up Asker victory versus Tromsdalen

The hosts Asker saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the 2. Division. That game was an away game at Vålerenga II, so at least Asker are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

It's quite the trip for Tromsdalen when visiting Asker as the cities are 1700 kilometers apart.

Asker form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Føyka Kunstgress as Asker have scored 23 goals to get 19 points from 9 games. The overall stats in the 2. Division are 6-1-2 (wins-draws-losses). Asker has won so many consecutive home games (five in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Føyka Kunstgress. We remember; it was Vålerenga II.

It's back home for Asker, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Vålerenga II away with the result 5-0. R. Isegran, S. Mauritz-Hansen, D. Sereba (2) and J. Skaug found the net in that victory. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Asker played a great game against Vålerenga II and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.

Ahead of that match, Asker won a home game hosting Kvik Halden (3-1).

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Asker's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played three games, won one match, drawn zero and lost two.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Asker as they have a new game in only four days, a 2. Division match thankfully also at home. Moss are visiting.

Goals are plentiful at Føyka Kunstgress in the league this season as Asker has scored 23 goals here in 9 home games. Asker's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 12 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Tromsdalen form and stats

There's been little loot from Tromsdalen's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 8 away games in the 2. Division. Tromsdalen only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws.

Tromsdalen have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Teodor Nilsen. It's been 270 minutes since they last conceded in 2. Division.

V. Lysvoll, E. Hauglann Ness, A. Løvland, N. Lind-Olsen and H. Lysvoll (2) scored in Tromsdalen's previous match, the home game against Fløya that ended 6-0. As mentioned above, Tromsdalen was the only team on the pitch versus Fløya in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task.

A draw for Tromsdalen before that, at their own venue hosting Hødd (0-0).

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Tromsdalen playing away, we found three games. Results were one away win, two draws and zero home wins.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Tromsdalen have scored 10 goals in 8 league games away. In the opposite end, Tromsdalen have conceded 15 goals in their away games.
