Strømmen form and stats

Strømmen have played 13 Obos-Ligaen games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-4-2 (wins-draws-losses).

A good away victory last time out for Strømmen, who won 4-1 against Åsane (placed 5th). Previous to that game, a home match hosting Ullensaker / Kisa in a game that was won 3-1.

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 Strømmen have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won two times, drawn two and lost two.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Tromsø are coming to town in three days.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (27 in 13 games), Strømmen's attacking play is working. 18 goals have been conceded.

Stjørdals-Blink form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Stjørdals-Blink so far with only 12 points returning home. The records show 3-3-7 (win-draw-lose). Three has not been a lucky number for Stjørdals-Blink as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Øygarden match. Stjørdals-Blink seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Stjørdals-Blink might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Raufoss proved too strong as Stjørdals-Blink slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Nye Blinkbanen. A 2-3 defeat away at Kongsvinger before that.

We have checked recent matches where Stjørdals-Blink have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those six games were one victory, two draws and three defeats.

The schedule is very tough for Stjørdals-Blink now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Obos-Ligaen game at Jerv is waiting in only three days.

Stjørdals-Blink are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 18 away goals from 13 games (in the league). Stjørdals-Blink have conceded 26 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Stjørdals-Blink - Strømmen 2-1 played earlier this season.
