Ranheim II form and stats

Ranheim II, who have the most points (22) at home in 3. Division, are steadily winning 3. Division games and points here at EXTRA Arena. 7 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat is the summary from 9 games. Two home wins in a row for Ranheim II bring valid hopes of a third.

Ranheim II's previous game was a 3. Division match also played at home, ending 3-2 versus Steinkjer. The home side are looking to build on that result. Preceding that game was the away draw at Verdal that finished 0-0.

Ranheim II are huge favourites in this match and it would be a big surprise if they fail to leave EXTRA Arena with maximum points. The home side has been in this situation before, with huge expectations of a win. five earlier games are comparable to this one, and Ranheim II has won 5 times, drawn 0 and lost 0. Sports bettors who like handicap betting will like to know that Ranheim II has won by at least two goals 4 times when in this position.

Ranheim II always seem capable of creating a buzz here at EXTRA Arena with 36 goals in 9 league games. Ranheim II have conceded 12 in these home matches.

Steinkjer form and stats

There's been little loot from Steinkjer's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 9 away games in the 3. Division. Steinkjer, who have the fewest points (4) away in 3. Division, only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 1 draw. Bitter travels for Steinkjer as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Verdal. With the Steinkjer losing streak of six defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

Steinkjer play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 2-3 to Ranheim II. Prior to that match, the Steinkjer manager faced defeat when travelling to Tiller and losing 1-4.

Nobody expects Steinkjer to collect points from a game like this. The team has been David versus Goliath 36 times before, with the overall statistics of won 5, draw 3 and lost 28. When defeated, 21 matches have been lost by two or more goals.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Steinkjer as they have only managed to score 7 times from 9 away games in the league. For Steinkjer, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head
