An important duel in the bottom section of the 2. Division, with both Nardo and Bærum experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 12th and the visitors in 11th place.
It's no vacation for neither Nardo nor Bærum 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.
Nardo form and stats
Nardo have played three 2. Division home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Nardo have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Nardo, who played 1-1 against Bærum. That match was also played at this venue (Nissekollen Kunstgress). Heartbreak before that as Nardo lost 0-2 at Odd II's place.
This is expected to be a close game, with Nardo perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Nardo as a small favourite), we find four games. Nardo has won one of these, drawn two and lost one.
The Nardo fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 5 goals in 3 league matches. Nardo have conceded 7 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Bærum form and stats
The 2. Division season is young and Bærum have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far. Bærum has drawn their two previous away games.
Bærum has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Nardo for a 2. Division game that ended a draw (1-1). Preceding that, the 1-3 home loss versus Vard.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found two similar matches played by Bærum in our archives, and the results are: zero wins for Bærum, one draw and one defeat.
The visitors have scored 2 goals from 3 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. 3 goals have been conceded by Bærum in these games.
