Bryne form and stats

2-2-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Obos-Ligaen numbers at home for Bryne so far this season. When Bryne hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Åsane, Bryne, Grorud, Stjørdals-Blink and Skeid), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

No payout for Bryne in their previous match, an away game at Brann that ended in defeat 1-2. The first loss after collecting points in five league matches.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Stjørdals-Blink that ended 0-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Bryne have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 6 games) they have won 3 times, drawn 2 and lost 1.

There will be little rest for Bryne after this match as they are travelling to Skeid for a Obos-Ligaen game in only four days.
