Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Sola & Bryne face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the NM Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
Sola and Bryne should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Sola form and stats
Action has already taken place for Sola in NM Cup as they have defeated Madla to reach the 2nd Round. Sola was eliminated in the 1st round last season in the NM Cup.The Sola supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Madla in NM Cup and win 1-0.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Stjørdals-Blink (1-4).Bryne form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Hinna in order to reach 2nd round of NM Cup. Last season their NM Cup adventure ended in the 3rd round.There's been little loot from Bryne's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 6 away games in the Obos-Ligaen. Bryne only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 0 draws. It's looking increasingly bleak for Bryne who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Stjørdals-Blink was the last time a defeat was avoided.
It's the second away game in a row for Bryne, but there's smiles all around after the 4-0 victory versus Hinna in the NM Cup last time out. As mentioned above, Bryne was the only team on the pitch versus Hinna in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.
A loss against Sandnes Ulf was the result prior to that, in a Obos-Ligaen home game.Bryne are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 9 times in 6 away games so far. The Bryne manager J. Halvorsen has some worries about the defense as 13 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
As for the last five games between these two teams, there's one Sola victory, zero draws and four Bryne wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, two matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
