It's time for Odd - Jerv! Even with mixed fortunes up until now, this match could be a riot!

Insights:
  • Odd have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Jerv have the fewest scored goals (14) in Eliteserien

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Jerv have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 6-7-15 (win-draw-loss) from 28 matches.

This looks to be an intriguing fixture with lots of fun and excitement as both contenders are well refreshed since they last saw competitive action. Let's start!
