When Åsane hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Åsane, Bryne, Grorud, Stjørdals-Blink and Skeid), they have won 2 of 3 matches!

Åsane travelled for their previous game, a trip to KFUM that ended 2-2. A disappointing finish for Åsane in their match versus KFUM as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Sogndal.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Åsane have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 7 matches with the results: Won 4, drawn 2 and lost 1.

Fredrikstad form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Fredrikstad so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-4 (win-draw-lose). It's a growing despair in Fredrikstad as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

Home advantage was not enough for Fredrikstad in their previous game as they lost hosting Stabæk, 2-4. As you can tell from the result, the match against Stabæk was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Start wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 9 similar matches played by Fredrikstad in our archives, and the results are: 4 wins for Fredrikstad, 2 draws and 3 defeats.

Fredrikstad have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 9 league away games 11 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, Fredrikstad have seen the ball go into their own net 12 times on the road.
