Odd form and stats
5-0-6 (win-draw-lost) are the Eliteserien numbers at home for Odd so far this season. Two home wins in a row for Odd bring valid hopes of a third.
Happy days for Odd in their previous game, a fixture away at Sandefjord (placed 14th) that ended with a 3-1 victory. Gjengaar, a natural forward, was the best player for the team in that match, scoring a rating of 8.72 (out of 10). Gjengaar scored two goals and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
Previous to that game, a home match hosting Jerv in a game that was won 2-1.The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Odd have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 10 matches with the results: Won 4, drawn 3 and lost 3.
The Odd fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 16 in 11 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Odd defense is not exactly impregnable. 19 goals conceded from 11 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
HamKam form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for HamKam so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 1-6-3 (win-draw-lose).
Home advantage was not enough for HamKam in their previous game as they lost hosting Viking, 1-2. Midfielder Melgalvis was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.92. Melgalvis served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 36 successful passes (of 44 total).
A 1-2 defeat away at Sarpsborg 08 before that.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 11 similar matches played by HamKam in our archives, and the results are: 5 wins for HamKam, 4 draws and 2 defeats.
