Overall Obos-Ligaen stats at home this season for Sandnes Ulf are 4-1-0 (wins-draw-losses). There’s a good atmosphere here after three straight home wins.

In their previous game, the manager S. Landro led his Sandnes Ulf to a defeat in the Obos-Ligaen match away at Åsane. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here. Before that game, the 3-1 home victory against KFUM.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
