Vidar form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories so far this season. Vidar, who have the fewest scored goals (8) at home in 2. Division, have only managed 2 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses so far from their games here at Lassa idrettspark.

Vidar's previous game was a 2. Division: Group 1 match also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Bryne. The home side are looking to build on that result. Preceding that game was the away draw at Byåsen that finished 2-2.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Vidar have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found three matches with the results: Won 1 Drawn 0 Lost 2.

Vidar has scored 8 goals at home this season, in 7 matches. Vidar have conceded 8 in these home matches.
