The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Sandnes Ulf are in the 6th position while the guesting Raufoss worry at 12th.
It's no vacation for neither Sandnes Ulf nor Raufoss as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Sandnes Ulf form and stats
Sandnes Ulf have performed here this season with 4 wins from 6 Obos-Ligaen matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 1 game and lost 1.
The Sandnes fans got no joy from their last match, a Obos-Ligaen game also here: A 1-2 defeat against HamKam (placed 16th). A defeat was the result before that one, 1-4 away at Åsane.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Sandnes Ulf have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won four times, drawn one and lost two.
Sandnes are traveling soon after this match as the Obos-Ligaen match at Grorud awaits in three days.
Goals decide football matches and Sandnes are scoring many of them at home; 13 on target from 6 league matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Sandnes defense is not exactly impregnable. 9 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Raufoss form and stats
Raufoss have only collected 2 points from their away games in the Obos-Ligaen, after 0-2-4 (6 played). With three draws in a row for Raufoss the feeling in the team is perhaps one of both relief and disappointment.
Raufoss's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Ullensaker / Kisa that finished 1-1. Preceding that game, the 2-2 draw paying a visit to Lillestrøm.
We have checked recent matches where Raufoss have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those six games were two victories, zero draws and four defeats.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Åsane in just three days.
Raufoss have scored 7 goals on their travels this season, from 6 away games in the league. The Raufoss manager C. Johnsen has some worries about the defense as 13 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last five meetings between these two teams are: five wins for Sandnes, zero draws and zero wins for Raufoss. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: zero games.Top Goalscorers
