Sandnes Ulf form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Sandnes Ulf so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-6 (win-draw-lose). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Sandnes Ulf are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

A quick return to home after this game, as Sandnes are hosting Åsane in the Obos-Ligaen only four days away.
