Eliteserien: Top-drawer against modest, at least that's what the table says. Molde - Jerv. Home victory or a surprise result?

Insights:
  • Molde have the fewest conceded goals (11) in Eliteserien
  • Jerv have the fewest scored goals (6) in Eliteserien

This stadium has artifical turf, which is not Jerv's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artifical turf Jerv have performed like this: Played 29 matches with the outcome 7 wins, 9 draws and 13 defeats with the goal difference 43-66 (scored/conceded).

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Molde and Jerv.

The story so far for the visiting team, who have the fewest scored goals (6) in Eliteserien, on their Eliteserien travels is 0 wins, 0 draws and 4 defeats.

The fans enjoyed Jerv's previous fixture versus Haugesund (placed 13th), a 1-0 win played at home. Hooray; their first victory in the league after seven games not winning. Schröter came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Haugesund last time out, making the manager Sandstø feel like a tactical genius.
