Fram form and stats

Fram have collected 12 points from their 2. Division home games so far after 4-0-1. Ever since the Vard game Fram has been unbeatable here at Framparken producing four straight wins.

Fram enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Levanger's place. The match ended 4-2 with S. Brewer, S. Bojadzic (2) and S. Pop scoring. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Sotra in a game that was won 3-1.

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

The Fram manager H. Lunov has got the team scoring with 11 from 5 home games in the league. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Fram defense is not exactly impregnable. 8 goals conceded from 5 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Øygarden form and stats

As the visiting team in 2. Division matches, Øygarden have produced an overall stat of 0-1-4 so far.

Øygarden had fun at their own home (Framparken) last time out, beating Nardo 2-0. M. Eiane and J. Edvardsen scored.

Before that, Øygarden travelled to Kjelsås and returned home with a draw after the game finished 2-2.

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

The attacking power of Øygarden when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 5 league matches away. There are big problems for the Øygarden defense as they have conceded 16 goals in 5 away games.
