Øygarden form and stats

It's not happening yet for Øygarden on their 2. Division travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? A depressing four defeats in a row for Øygarden in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Stjørdals-Blink.

196 minutes! That's how long the Øygarden goalkeeper Borger Thomas and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Two travels in a row for Øygarden, whose manager T. Knarvik could celebrate last time after the NM Cup win against Os. As mentioned above, Øygarden was the only team on the pitch versus Os in their previous game, winning 6-2. This could be a tougher task.

A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Odd II.

After this away game Øygarden return home for a 2. Division game against Vard. That game is only four sleeps after this.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Øygarden's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 3 matches. The Øygarden defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 12 goals in their away games.
