Insights:
  • Lillestrøm have the most points from losing position (3) in Eliteserien

15-5-10 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Lillestrøm when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 30 matches are 52-51 (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.
