HamKam are banking on their home crowd to aid them to win this game hosting Haugesund. Who triumphs at Briskeby Arena?

Insights:
  • HamKam have the most matches under the total-line (9) in Eliteserien
  • Haugesund have won significantly less corners away then at home.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Haugesund have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 8-6-12 (win-draw-loss) from 26 matches.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
