Sandnes Ulf form and stats

Sandnes Ulf must be fairly happy with 6 points from their first three Obos-Ligaen games here at Øster Hus Arena.

Stress levels are on the rise for Sandnes Ulf's attacking players as they have now played 232 minutes without scoring in a league game. Ringberg was their last goal scorer.

Sandnes are returning here after visiting Vardeneset in a NM Cup fixture and winning with a 4-1 scoreline.

Prior to that, an away loss at Brann in the Obos-Ligaen.

This is expected to be a close game, with Sandnes Ulf perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Sandnes Ulf as a small favourite), we find 11 games. Sandnes Ulf has won 5 of these, drawn 2 and lost 4.

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

Sandnes Ulf has scored 6 goals so far and conceded 6 goals from 3 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
