3 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Sogndal playing as the away team in the Obos-Ligaen this season. Visiting Sogndal has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

Nord, Liceága, Grønner and Twum scored in Sogndal's previous match, the home game against Stjørdals-Blink that ended 6-1. As you can tell from the results above, Sogndal was very dominant against Stjørdals-Blink, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 6-1 (!) with Nord, Liceága, Grønner and Twum providing the goals.

Before that, Sogndal travelled to Kongsvinger and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.

The travelling fans enjoy Sogndal's attacking play in away games, having scored 23 goals in 13 league matches away. The Sogndal manager Flo has some worries about the defense as 30 goals have been conceded in these travels.
