Season ticket holders at SR-Bank Arena haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Viking languishing in the 13th position so far. The guesting Stabæk will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Viking's stadium, SR-Bank Arena, has a artifical turf surface. Stabæk have grass on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for Stabæk when playing on artifical turf; 10 wins, 5 draws and 13 losses from 28 matches. They have scored 44 goals in these games and conceded 48.
Viking form and stats
When playing at home in the Eliteserien, Viking have managed 2 wins, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 6 games.
Viking drew their last game, 2-2 away at Aalesund (placed 16th). Before that game, the home loss against Kristiansund with the scoreline 1-2.
The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Viking's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played five games, won three matches, drawn zero and lost two.
The Viking fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 10 goals in 6 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 9 goals have been conceded.
Stabæk form and stats
2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Stabæk playing as the away team in the Eliteserien this season.
Stabæk might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Odd proved too strong as Stabæk slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Nadderud Stadion. Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Haugesund's place.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day.
