Haugesund manager Jostein Grindhaug will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 3-0 away defeat by Stabæk.  They came away from that fixture with 52% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 3 on target. By comparison, Stabæk managed 21 attempts on goal, with 7 on target.  

Having lost 12 goals in their past 6 matches, Grindhaug will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 8 goals they scored.  Having found the back of the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Haugesund Stadion, they are developing an impressive scoring record at home.  Grindhaug has a real defensive headache with his squad's inability to keep a clean sheet at home, having conceded a goal in each of their the past 13 games.  

Having managed to remain undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home matches at Haugesund Stadion, they have put together a strong home record of late, winning 3 of these games too.

A point gained from their 0-0 draw against Odds Ballklubb in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for Sarpsborg 08.  They achieved 46% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Odds Ballklubb's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.  

It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 10 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 9 goals shipped and valuable points dropped.  

Their unbeaten run away from home now sits at 6 games in a row.  

Away from home in the league, Mikkel Maigaard has given the Sarpsborg 08 travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 3 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
