Levanger and Sotra have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the 2. Division.

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!

Levanger form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Levanger have to build on here at TOBB ARENA Levanger in the 2. Division. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at TOBB ARENA Levanger.

Levanger faced defeat in their previous match, away at Bryne (2-4). Ahead of that match, Levanger won a home game hosting Fram (4-2).

A disaster for the home team in their last match (vs Bryne) as a comfortable lead 2-0 was completely ruined into a loss 2-4. 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?

The manager P. Vågan Rønning will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Vard in only three days.

The Levanger fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 5 matches. On the other hand, Levanger have conceded 5 goals.

Sotra form and stats

Playing away, Sotra have won 3 games, drawn 0 and suffered 2 defeats in the 2. Division this season. Sotra seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Sotra delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Bærum (placed 10th) in their previous match; a 2. Division game. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Flekkerøy wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

A new game in only three days for Sotra, the 2. Division home match versus Asker. Busy days.

Sotra has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 8 goals from 5 games. Sotra have conceded 10 goals in these games.
