Sandefjord form and stats

With 1 Eliteserien win, 3 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Sandefjord are certainly not brimming with confidence.

The followers are hoping that Sandefjord will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the match against Lillestrøm (placed 2nd). Keto had a busy but productive day in the Lillestrøm match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented.

Preceding that match was the home game against Rosenborg that was lost 2-5.

Lots of goals and action? Who knows what will happen in this one, but we do know that 10 of the 11 latest league games with this team has contained three goals or more.

A decent goal production from Sandefjord in their home games so far, with 15 goals from 9 league matches. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Sandefjord having conceded 23 goals here at Komplett Arena so far.

The fans enjoyed Strømsgodset's previous fixture versus Jerv (placed 15th), a 6-0 win played at home. As you can tell from the results above, Strømsgodset was very dominant against Jerv, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 6-0 (!) with Hove, Friday (2), Ipalibo and Gulliksen (2) providing the goals.
