This match features two teams living in the basement of the 3. Division, Vestfossen holding 12th place and Valdres lying 14th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Valdres have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 0-0-3 (win-draw-loss) from three matches.

Vestfossen have had a bad season and will be relegated from 3. Division. Valdres are nearing the end of this stay in this division as relegation is now unavoidable.

Vestfossen form and stats

Overall 3. Division stats at home this season for Vestfossen are 5-2-5 (wins-draw-losses). Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Vestfossen with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Stord game, 34 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Vestfossen lost their last game at Brann II (placed 9th) after a 1-5 scoreline. Preceding that match was a defeat to Sogndal II (2-4).

Vestfossen were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

A decent goal production from Vestfossen in their home games so far, with 20 goals from 12 league matches. Vestfossen have conceded 26 goals in these home games, a significant number.

Valdres form and stats

Valdres, who have the fewest scored goals (10) in 3. Division, have only collected 0 points from their away games in the 3. Division, after 0-0-12 (12 played). The manager is not happy with the away performances in the 3. Division so far, as all 12 matches have been lost. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Valdres, who have now gone 22 games without a victory. The Vestfossen game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in twelve away games in a row.

Valdres failed to get anything from their last game, a 3. Division home match vs Stord (placed 6th) that ended with defeat 0-6. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Bergen Nord wasn't a success with a 0-8 loss.

Valdres lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-6 beating and focus on this one.

Goals are few and far between in Valdres's away league games. Only 3 goals from 12 travels. The Valdres defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 104 goals in their away games.
