Haugesund have come here for an absorbing duel against the hosts Lillestrøm. Read up on the game with this in-depth Eliteserien preview!
- Haugesund have the most conceded goals in the first half (5) in Eliteserien
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Lillestrøm form and stats
The hosts won their first Eliteserien game here at Åråsen Stadion, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Lillestrøm last season were 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses from 15 games.
A strong away win for Lillestrøm against Molde the last match, as Friðjónsson and Ogbu were on target. A late climax in the match against Molde as the winning goal came eight minutes into overtime; scored by Friðjónsson. The forward Åsen won the honour of being "man of the match" for Lillestrøm with the rating of 7.61/10. Åsen signed up for two assists and hit two key passes.
Before that game, the 4-0 home victory against Jerv.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Lillestrøm matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, one draw and one defeat (from five games).
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Aalesund are coming to town in four days.
Lillestrøm has scored 4 goals so far and conceded 0 goals from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
Haugesund form and stats
Haugesund have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Eliteserien were 1 victory, 5 draws and 9 defeats from 15 fixtures. Three has not been a lucky number for Haugesund as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Sandefjord match.
Haugesund failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Strømsgodset (placed 13th) that ended with defeat 0-1. Baertelsen was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.45. The defender Baertelsen won 6 of 6 duels.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Vålerenga wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.Looking at the earlier recent performances of Haugesund when being an outsider away as they are today, we find four matches with the visitors losing one time, drawing two and winning one game.
1 goal so far away for Haugesund, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 1 league match away.
