  • Egersund have the most scored goals in the first half (30) in 2. Division

Both sides have had ample time to rest since their previous effort on the pitch. Let's agree to expect an enthusiastic game!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Egersund have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 18-6-5 (win-draw-loss) from 29 matches.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
