Match begins: 16:00 (UTC)
Venue: Skagerak Arena (13500 seats)

A total of 28 matches are played and Odd are 8 points on top of Strømsgodset. What will happen?

Insights:
  • Odd have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Strømsgodset have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

Odd are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Strømsgodset is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Odd are returning here after visiting Lillestrøm and winning with a 2-0 scoreline. Ingebrigtsen and Gjengaar scored the goal(s). The striker Ingebrigtsen edged out all the other footballers in that game and received a match rating of 7.84 out of 10. Ingebrigtsen scored one goal and hit one key pass.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Vålerenga in a game that was won 2-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Odd have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 9 games) they have won 3 times, drawn 2 and lost 4.

The Odd fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 21 goals in 14 league matches. Odd have conceded 21 from these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Strømsgodset form and stats

Strømsgodset have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Eliteserien, after 2-4-8 (14 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Strømsgodset have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road.

Strømsgodset's previous game was their home loss versus Haugesund (1-2). Midfield player Stengel was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.54/10. Stengel served one assist, hit nine key passes and had 61 successful passes (of 65 total).

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus HamKam that ended 1-1.

Strømsgodset are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 2 draws and 9 defeats. From a total of 14 matches.

Observe that 11 of this side's 13 most recent league rounds have ended with three or more goals.

The visitors have scored 11 goals from 14 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Strømsgodset's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 25 goals from these trips.
