The visiting Odd side should be favourites in this visit to Sandefjord, as the away team holds a 14 point advantage from their 25 league games this season.

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!

This pitch has grass, which is not Odd's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on grass Odd have performed like this: Played 13 matches resulting in 2 wins, 6 draws and 5 defeats with the goal stats 13-19 (scored/conceded).

Sandefjord are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. Odd are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
