Match description

The favorites are the visitors (Sogndal) and I forecast their victory. In the last 5 matches Sogndal scored 14 goals (2.8 per game) with a record of 2 wins and 3 draws, while Sandnes scored 5 goals in their last five fixtures (1.0 per game) and average 0.8 points per game in that period. The visitors generate higher xG (1.6 vs 1.26 for the hosts) and create more chances — 14.5 average shots and 4.0 on target versus 11.75 shots and 3.25 on target for Sandnes — which speaks to the quality of their attack. At the same time Sogndal concede an average of 3.0 goals away (xG against 2.25), while Sandnes concede 1.75 at home (average xG against 1.34), and both teams have 0% clean sheets at the respective venues, so I expect an open, goalscoring game. Considering Sogndal’s superior efficiency and chance creation, but also their weak away defence and the fact they have not yet won on the road this season, I give the visitors the higher probability while acknowledging a notable chance of a draw.
