Mjøndalen form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Mjøndalen so far with only 11 points returning home. The records show 2-5-7 (win-draw-lose).

Mjøndalen might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Sarpsborg 08 proved too strong as Mjøndalen slumped to a 1-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Consto Arena. The attacker Lars Olden Larsen got a match rating of 8.22 in that game. Larsen scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 4 of 4 times.

Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Strømsgodset.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Mjøndalen played away with similar odds. This revealed eight games. The visitors overcame the odds to win zero times, two were draws and the home team won as expected six times.

Mjøndalen have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 14 league away games 14 goals have been scored. The Mjøndalen manager V. Hansen has some worries about the defense as 28 goals have been conceded in these travels.
