The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Stjørdals-Blink are in the 9th position while the guesting Grorud worry at 14th.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Stjørdals-Blink form and stats
5 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Stjørdals-Blink, who have the most conceded goals (26) at home in Obos-Ligaen, have to build on here in the Obos-Ligaen.
Stjørdals-Blink shared the glory with Ranheim in their last match, an away game that ended all square 2-2. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Tromsø in a game that was won 4-2.
Trouble was brewing at the score 0-2 against Ranheim last time out, but a goal from M. Lillebo completed a comeback to a draw result for Stjørdals-Blink.
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 Stjørdals-Blink's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played one game, won one match, drawn zero and lost zero.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Stjørdals-Blink as they are travelling to their away game against Sandnes Ulf in the Obos-Ligaen. That match is three days after this one.
Stjørdals-Blink are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here in their league games, having scored an impressive 30 goals in 12 matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Stjørdals-Blink with 26 goals conceded in these matches.
Grorud form and stats
Grorud have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Obos-Ligaen, after 1-4-6 (11 played). A depressing four defeats in a row for Grorud in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Raufoss. It's looking increasingly bleak for Grorud who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. Øygarden was the last time a defeat was avoided.
Home advantage was not enough for Grorud in their previous game, as they lost their Obos-Ligaen-match, hosting Åsane, 1-4. Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Ullensaker / Kisa's place.
Looking at the earlier recent performances of Grorud when being an outsider away as they are today, we find two matches with the visitors losing one time, drawing zero and winning one game.
A new game in only three days for Grorud, the Obos-Ligaen home match versus Strømmen. Busy days.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Grorud have scored 14 goals in 11 league games away. For Grorud, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
