Sandefjord form and stats

When playing at home in the Eliteserien, Sandefjord have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 7 games.

No payout for Sandefjord in their previous match, an away game at Arendal (after extra-time) that ended in defeat 4-5. A disaster for the home team in their last match (vs Arendal (after extra-time)) as a comfortable lead 3-1 was completely ruined into a loss 4-5. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

A strong away win before that one, visiting Odd and winning 3-2.

The Sandefjord fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 7 matches. Sandefjord's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 9 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Lillestrøm form and stats

2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Lillestrøm playing as the away team in the Eliteserien this season.

Lillestrøm play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-1 victory visiting Skeid (after extra-time).

That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Sarpsborg 08 in the Eliteserien.

Lillestrøm are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 9 times in 6 away games so far. Lillestrøm's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 10 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: one win for Sandefjord, two draws and seven wins for Lillestrøm. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.
