The guesting Viking side should be odds-on at Haugesund, as the away team have a 12 point edge from their twelve league games this season.
- Haugesund have the most conceded goals (22) in Eliteserien
- Viking have the most scored goals in the second half (15) in Eliteserien
6-2-4 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Viking when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those twelve matches are 20-23 (scored/conceded).
It's no vacation for neither Haugesund nor Viking as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

When playing at home in the Eliteserien, Haugesund have managed 1 win, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 5 games.

1-1 away at Tromsø before that.Haugesund are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 6 goals in 5 games.

Two trips in a row for Viking, whose boss Jensen could celebrate last time after the NM Cup win against Vard.
A 1-2 loss hosting Sandefjord before that.The travelling fans enjoy Viking's attacking play in away games, having scored 9 goals in 5 league matches away. Viking's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 9 goals from these trips.
