3rd position in the Eliteserien table for Odd so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 7th-placed Stabæk visits Skagerak Arena.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
10 - 6 - 12 with 46-47. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for Stabæk when playing on artifical turf like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. Stabæk play their home games on grass so that's why we provide these numbers.
Odd form and stats
Odd have performed here at Skagerak Arena this season with 6 wins from 9 Eliteserien matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 1 game and lost 2. After failing to beat Haugesund here at Skagerak Arena, Odd has put together a very nice winning streak on their own turf with five wins in a row.
The fans are hoping that Odd will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-6 away loss in the Eliteserien game against Bodø / Glimt (placed 1st). Before that game, the 6-1 home victory against Mjøndalen.
As you see from the result above, Odd suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.
The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Odd's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played seven games, won five matches, drawn one and lost one.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (19 in 9 games), Odd's attacking play is working. On the other hand, Odd have conceded 12 goals.
Stabæk form and stats
The visitors are W2-D4-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Eliteserien. Visiting Stabæk has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.
Impressive finishing from Andreas Hanche-Olsen and Darren Maatsen secured the home win 2-1 against Haugesund in their previous game. Before that, Stabæk travelled to Rosenborg and returned home with a draw after the game finished 2-2.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager J. Jönsson when Darren Maatsen scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 69th minute.
Looking at the earlier recent performances of Stabæk when being an outsider away as they are today, we find eight matches with the visitors losing five times, drawing two and winning one game.
Stabæk are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 14 times in 8 away games so far. The Stabæk manager J. Jönsson has some worries about the defense as 16 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Stabæk - Odd 0-1. Last ten meetings between the teams: Odd won three, Stabæk won six and one draw. six games with over 2,5 goals, four matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
