As the visiting team in 3. Division matches, Årdal, who have the fewest scored goals (2) away in 3. Division, have produced an overall stat of 0-1-4 so far. A depressing four defeats in a row for Årdal in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Lyn.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a 3. Division home defeat versus Bjarg with 3-5 on the scoreboard. As you can tell from the result, the match against Bjarg was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 8 goals, will the fun continue today?

Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Os's place.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Årdal's away games in the league this season with only 2 goals from 5 matches. The Årdal defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 18 goals in their away games.
