Venue: Nordre Åsen kunstgress (1000 seats)

Skeid get ready to host Moss for another absorbing Obos-Ligaen game here at Nordre Åsen kunstgress.

Insights:
  • Skeid have the most scored goals (8) in Obos-Ligaen
  • Moss have the most points from losing position (4) in Obos-Ligaen

7-3-7 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Moss when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 17 matches are 30-35 (scored/conceded).

It's no vacation for neither Skeid nor Moss 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.

Skeid form and stats

The first Obos-Ligaen game here at Nordre Åsen kunstgress resulted in a draw. Last season Skeid's home game statistics were 6 victories, 2 draws and 7 defeats from 15 games.

Happy days for Skeid in their previous game, a fixture away at Ranheim (placed 1st) that ended with a 4-0 victory. Sweet to taste a league win after three games without one. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Skeid played a great game against Ranheim and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one. Hoven was absolutely essential when Skeid beat Ranheim 4-0, scoring three goals.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Jerv (2-3).

The manager Holme will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Fredrikstad in only four days.

Early season league goal statistics from Skeid's 1 home game: {1 goals}, 1 conceded.

Moss form and stats

The visitors settled for one point in their first Obos-Ligaen away game of the season. During their previous season 12 away games resulted in 8 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

The supporters enjoyed Moss's previous fixture versus Jerv (placed 6th), a 2-1 win played at home. That win felt good as this team had gone three league rounds without winning.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Sogndal.

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 Moss playing away, we found 4 games. Results were 0 away wins, 1 draw and 3 home wins.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Sandnes Ulf in just four days.

It's early days yet, but Moss has scored 1 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).

Head 2 Head

Previous seven meetings involving these sides: Skeid won three, Moss triumphed in two and we saw two draws. five games with over 2,5 goals, two matches with under 2,5 goals.
