HamKam form and stats

HamKam's results here at Briskeby Arena in the Obos-Ligaen have been very modest with 0 victories, 3 draws and 5 defeats. HamKam are slowly digging their own grave here at Briskeby Arena with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eight attempts. The last victory here came in the Kongsvinger match.

A strong away win for HamKam against Raufoss the last match, as M. Solbakken and S. Strømnes were on target. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Stjørdals-Blink.

This is expected to be a close game, with HamKam perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with HamKam as a small favourite), we find eight games. HamKam has won zero of these, drawn six and lost two.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for HamKam, as the Obos-Ligaen home game vs Sandnes Ulf is only four days away.

A decent goal production from HamKam in their home games so far, with 13 goals from 8 league matches. HamKam are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (19 from 8 played).

Jerv form and stats

Jerv have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Obos-Ligaen, after 1-3-4 (8 played). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Jerv are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Jerv are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the Obos-Ligaen against Strømmen (placed 11th). The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-3 defeat against Sogndal.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Jerv playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were two Jerv wins, three draws and four defeats.

After this away game Jerv return home for a Obos-Ligaen game against Raufoss. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Jerv are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 12 times in 8 away games so far. For Jerv, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net. It's worth mentioning that 11 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
