Venue: Halden Stadion (5000 seats)

A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Kvik Halden fans are optimistic that the difference between 3rd and Senja's 12th place in the table will show on the pitch.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Senja have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1600 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Senja form and stats

As the visiting team in 2. Division matches, Senja have produced an overall stat of 1-0-3 so far. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Senja are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

A 0-5 defeat away at Fredrikstad before that.

As mentioned above, Senja drew the match against Vålerenga II. Manager K. Warholm brought on A. Melseth to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.

With the home team given a winning probability of about 80% by the bookmakers, any positive result for the visitors would be a surprise. Checking earlier matches with similar odds with Senja as the away team, we found two results. Statistics from these were zero away wins, zero draws and two defeats. The outsiders lost one of these games by at least two goals.

Senja find the net regularly in their away games. 4 goals from 4 away fixtures in the league. Senja can't defend away. 13 goals have been scored by the opposition in 4 matches, an average of more than three per game.
