On Sunday evening, Sarpsborg host Sandefjord in a midtable clash in the Norwegian Eliteserien, as both teams look to kick-start their campaigns in the top-flight.
Sarpsborg
The home team has made an inconsistent start to the new Norwegian top-flight campaign, picking up 16 points from their opening 11 league outings. Their mixed start has seen them fall five points behind the team’s occupying the European spots in the Eliteserien. However, Stefan Billborn’s team has played two fewer games than third-place Viking.
A 3-2 defeat at HamKam last time out ended a two-game winning run in the Eliteserien for the home side. The loss means that Sarpsborg has now lost four of their last six matches in the Norwegian top-flight while also conceding at least two goals in three of the four league defeats.
Their recent league outings have certainly offered entertainment when it comes to goals, as there have been over 2.5 goals scored in their last five games in the Eliteserien.
Sandefjord
The visitors have experienced a similar start to their league campaign as Sarpsborg, taking 13 points from their ten league outings so far this season. They have played a game fewer than their opponents and could move level on points with them in the table with a victory.
Sandefjord head into this game on the back of a three-game unbeaten run in Eliteserien. A 2-2 home draw with Tromso ended a good two-game winning run in the Norwegian top-flight.
Like their opponents, Sandefjord’s games have been high-scoring of late. In fact, there have been over 2.5 goals scored in nine of their ten league matches this season.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Sandefjord will record a victory in a high-scoring affair to continue their recent encouraging run in the Norwegian top flight.
