KFUM and Grorud are keen to let the world see their new recruits and tricks: It's their first fixture of the Obos-Ligaen season.
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
KFUM form and stats
The previous season, KFUM's league results were 12 wins, 8 draws and 10 losses, producing 5th position in the Obos-Ligaen. In these 30 matches they scored 46 goals and let in 45. Performing at their own stadium in the previous season KFUM produced 9-2-4 (win-draw-lost) with 28 goals and 18 conceded.
The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from KFUM's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played seven games, won three matches, drawn one and lost three.
With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the KFUM friendly games in pre-season: KFUM played seven friendlies, won 5, drew 0 and lost 2. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that KFUM scored 16 goals and conceded 7 in these seven games.
Grorud form and stats
Let's have a look at how Grorud performed last season in the Obos-Ligaen: They landed a 13th position in the league table after playing out 10 victories, 4 draws and 16 defeats. In total they scored 45 and conceded 59 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 4 - drew 3 and lost 8 with 21/31 goals scored/conceded.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Grorud playing away, we found five games. Results were two away wins, two draws and one home win.
It's finally time to play a game of importance again as a long period of training has passed. Grorud have played a number of friendly games in this period, resulting in 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from six fixtures.
Head 2 Head
Stats for the former ten meetings featuring these two sides are: three wins for KFUM, three draws and four wins for Grorud. Over 2,5 goals: eight times; under 2,5 goals: two games.KFUM missing players
