Sandefjord form and stats
Sandefjord have played 4 Eliteserien games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).
The club members are hoping that Sandefjord will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-6 away loss in the match against Sarpsborg 08 (placed 5th). Sandefjord were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Keto had a busy but productive day in the Sarpsborg 08 match. Despite making nine saves the loss could not be prevented.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Haugesund (2-3).This is expected to be a close game, with Sandefjord perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Sandefjord as a small favourite), we find 8 games. Sandefjord has won 5 of these, drawn 3 and lost 0.

Stabæk form and stats
The visitors are W1-D0-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Eliteserien. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Stabæk are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

A 1-2 defeat away at Tromsø before that.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Stabæk playing away and similar expectations, we found 4 relevant matches. Results were 1 Stabæk win, 1 draw and 2 defeats.
The visiting Stabæk have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 6 goals from 5 games.
