Aalesund form and stats

4-4-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Eliteserien numbers at home for Aalesund so far this season. When Aalesund hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Kristiansund, Jerv, Aalesund, Sandefjord and Haugesund), they have won 2 of 3 matches!

Aalesund's previous game was also played at home, ending 2-1 versus Viking (placed 8th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Golubović was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.72 out of 10. The defender Golubović scored one goal and won 7 of 11 duels.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Molde (0-3).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Aalesund have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 4 games) they have won 2 times, drawn 2 and lost 0.

Lots of goals? Nobody knows the future, but we do know that 9 of the 11 most recent league games with this team has had at least three goals.

HamKam form and stats

HamKam have only collected 9 points from their away games in the Eliteserien, after 1-6-5 (12 played). The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Michelsen, the HamKam manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

HamKam play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-5 to Molde (placed 1st). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Molde was particularly ugly (0-5). The humiliation is still top of mind. Defender Opsahl was the best team player with a rating of 7.04. Opsahl won 5 of 6 duels.

Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Jerv.

We have checked recent matches where HamKam have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 6 games were 3 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats.

HamKam have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 12 league away games 13 goals have been scored. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, HamKam have conceded 22 goals in their away games. When HamKam is visiting a side on the bottom half, 2 of 3 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Kristiansund, Jerv, Sandefjord, Haugesund and HamKam.

Head 2 Head

Aalesund have managed a sequence of 6 consecutive matches without defeat (4-2-0) when playing HamKam.
