Date: Sun 30.June
Match begins: 16:00 (UTC)
Venue: Haugesund Stadion (8950 seats)

Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Haugesund in 8th and Vålerenga in 7th place.

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a NM Cup match only four days ago. This match was also played here at Haugesund Stadion. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Vålerenga have had more rest.

This stadium uses grass, unlike Vålerenga's home stadium. The visitors last 15 games on grass have ended in 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses.

Haugesund form and stats

1 victory, 4 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Haugesund have to build on here at Haugesund Stadion.

The Haugesund supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Strømmen in NM Cup and win 2-0. Prior to that, an away loss at Odd in the Eliteserien.

This is expected to be a close game, with Haugesund perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Haugesund as a small favourite), we find seven games. Haugesund has won 2 of these, drawn 0 and lost 5.

Haugesund has scored 7 goals at home this season, in 6 matches. From these home matches, Haugesund have conceded only 5 goals.

Vålerenga form and stats

Vålerenga have only collected 5 points from their away games after 1-2-3 (6 played). Vålerenga has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

There were no winners in Vålerenga's previous match, a Eliteserien home game that ended 1-1 vs Sarpsborg 08. A 3-5 defeat away at Bærum before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Vålerenga playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were 2 Vålerenga wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats.

Vålerenga have scored 8 goals on their travels this season, 6 away games. The Vålerenga manager R. Deila has some worries about the defense as 12 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Haugesund 3 wins, 3 draws and Vålerenga 4 victories. As for goals, 4 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 6 games had two or less.
