Eliteserien: The mid-table spots illustrates the road Strømsgodset and Haugesund have undertaken uptil now. Both squads are ready for the match; let's bake this cake!

Insights:
  • Strømsgodset have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
  • Strømsgodset have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Haugesund have scored away.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

This stadium has artifical turf, which is not Haugesund's normal surface at their own field. When playing on artifical turf Haugesund have performed like this: Played 32 matches taking 9 wins, 10 draws and 13 defeats with the goal difference 47-57 (scored/conceded).

Strømsgodset can neither be promoted or relegated from Eliteserien. Haugesund is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
