Struggling Odd II will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Bryne in the upcoming league round. It’s 13th vs 2nd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

It should be mentioned that Bryne play their home matches on grass, so they have to adjust for this one as it's played on artifical turf. Does it matter? Recent statistics for Bryne on artifical turf are 6 victories, 9 draws and 14 defeats from 29 games. In these matches they have a goal statistics scored/conceded: 45-56.

Odd II form and stats

Odd II, who have the fewest scored goals (4) in 2. Division, have collected 5 points from their 2. Division home games so far after 1-2-1.

Stress levels are on the rise for Odd's attacking players as they have now played 181 minutes without scoring in a league game. B. Njie was their last goal scorer.

In their previous game, the manager J. Nornes led his Odd to a defeat in the 2. Division match away at Rosenborg II. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Skagerak Arena. Heartbreak before that as Odd lost 0-5 at Arendal's place.

The Odd fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 4 matches. From these home matches, Odd have conceded only 3 goals.
