Byåsen stubborn opponents but Fredrikstad expect victory

It's no vacation for neither Fredrikstad nor Byåsen as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial grass and that the visiting Byåsen have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial grass is 1-1-10 (win-draw-loss) from twelve matches.
