Archived pre-match analysis

This analysis was prepared before kick-off. The conclusions use only information available before the match and do not include the final result or post-match statistics.

General match analysis

I forecast a Sogndal win (2). The visitors sit 11th in the table versus Lyn's 15th and have scored 28 goals this season compared to the hosts' 18; in the last 5 matches Sogndal have scored 11 goals while Lyn have 10. Lyn dominate possession at home (55% vs 48%) and have a higher shot conversion (10% vs 8%), but average xG favor the visitors: Sogndal have xG for 1.68 on the road versus Lyn's 1.49 at home, while both defenses are vulnerable (xG against 1.86 vs 2.08). Goalscoring stats indicate high risk at both ends — Lyn concede 2.75 goals per home match on average, Sogndal 3.00 away, and in the last 5 games they have conceded 13 and 16 goals respectively. Considering Sogndal’s higher shot volume (15.13 vs 12.25) and better points return over the last five matches (1.2 vs 0.8), I give the visitors the greater chance.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Strong signal for BTTS - Yes: Lyn has a seasonal BTTS rate of 71%, Sogndal 63%, with the league average at 61%. In the last 5 matches Lyn records BTTS in 80% and Sogndal 100%, indicating a clear tendency for both teams to exchange goals. Goal statistics show Lyn at home scores 2.57 and concedes 2.00 per match, while Sogndal away scores 1.25 and concedes 3.00, so the match profile favors goals scored and conceded. xG and shot data confirm this trend: Lyn xG 1.90 vs Sogndal 1.68, xG against 2.10 and 2.08; Lyn has 6.71 shots on target and a 17% conversion vs Sogndal 3.38 and 8% conversion, and the visitors have 0% clean sheets this season (hosts 14%). Considering also high over 2.5 rates for the season (86% Lyn and 88% Sogndal) and a league average of 3.77 goals, the forecast is BTTS = Yes with 80% probability and BTTS = No 20% as the less likely scenario.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Data indicate a high goal potential: Lyn averages 2.57 goals per match, Sogndal 1.25, totaling 3.82 goals this season and close to the league average of 3.77. Home xG is 1.90 vs away xG 1.68, and average xG conceded is 2.10 (Lyn) and 2.08 (Sogndal), which translates to projected ~1.99 goals for Lyn and ~1.89 for Sogndal (sum 3.88). Both teams have 100% of matches over 1.5 goals; over 2.5 occurs in 86% (Lyn) and 88% (Sogndal), and over 3.5 in 71% and 75% respectively, confirming a tendency toward high-scoring games. Lyn averages 6.71 shots on target vs 3.38 for Sogndal and has a higher shot conversion (17% vs 8%), so the home side increases the goal risk in the match. In light of these figures the strongest signal is Over 1.5 (practically certain), while Over 2.5 also has solid backing and represents an alternative value.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Lyn led at the break in 5 of 7 matches (71%), with 0 of 7 draws at half-time (0%), and their average goals by the break are 1.57 versus Sogndal’s 0.38 — a strong signal for the home side to lead after 45 minutes. Across the season Lyn average 2.57 goals and have a 57% win rate, while Sogndal score 1.25 goals and have only a 13% win rate, so Lyn’s advantage should persist to full-time. Additionally, Lyn average 6.71 shots on target versus Sogndal’s 3.38 and convert at 17% compared to 8%, while Sogndal concede an average of 3.0 goals per match, which increases the likelihood of maintaining the lead. Based on this, the most likely Half-Time/Full-Time scenario is 1/1, and that is the recommended pick.
