It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the NM Cup. That game, against Vålerenga, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Odd.

4 - 6 - 6 with 20-27. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for Odd when playing on grass like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. Odd play their home games on artifical turf so that's why we provide these numbers.

There's been little loot from Odd's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 10 away games in the Eliteserien. Odd only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 3 draws.

Odd play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-0 victory visiting Vålerenga (placed 8th).

A loss against Lillestrøm was the result prior to that, in a Eliteserien home game.

The visitors have scored 9 goals from 10 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Odd manager J. Nornes has some worries about the defense as 22 goals have been conceded in these travels.
