Competition: Norway Eliteserien
Competition: Sun 07.May
Match begins: 15:00 (UTC)
Venue: Nadderud Stadion (5000 seats)

Another engrossing fixture in the Eliteserien. Stabæk is in the 5th position after featuring in four matches. They welcome Sarpsborg 08 who are placed 11th after four fixtures.

5-2-8 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Sarpsborg 08 when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 15 matches are 21-19 (scored/conceded).

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
