General match analysis

Haugesund is the clear favorite: they sit 4th versus Sogndal’s 12th, have 4 wins this season compared to the home side’s single win, and a goal difference of 14–7 versus Sogndal’s 5–13. In their last 5 matches Haugesund scored 14 goals and won 4 of 5 (PPG 2.4), while Sogndal scored 5 and conceded 13, recording 1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses (PPG 0.8). Away, the visitors average 2.67 goals and 6.33 shots on target with a 20% conversion, whereas the hosts at home average only 1.00 goal and 6.00 shots on target with a 7% conversion; additionally Sogndal failed to score in 50% of home matches, while Haugesund have no away clean sheets conceded (0% FTS). Although Sogndal have a higher home xG (1.82) than the visitors’ average away xG (1.65), they actually score only 1.00 goal on 1.82 xG and concede an average home xG against of 2.00 (about 1.5 goals conceded), indicating finishing and defensive issues. Considering the superiority in efficiency (2.67 vs 1.00 goals), better conversion (20% vs 7%) and form (2.4 vs 0.8 PPG), I tip a Haugesund win; suggested probabilities: home 15%, draw 20%, away 65%.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Haugesund presents a strong signal for BTTS - Yes: season BTTS 67% and 60% in the last 5 matches, averaging 2.8 goals scored and 1.4 conceded in those five games. The league also favors both teams scoring — BTTS in 55% of season matches and an average goals per game of 3.43. Sogndal at home has a seasonal scoring average of 3.0 goals and season BTTS 50%, but in the last 5 matches they averaged only 1.0 goal and had BTTS in just 20%, which reduces confidence in their contribution to both teams scoring. xG comparison shows both sides create real chances: Sogndal xG_for 1.58 vs Haugesund xG_against 1.07, and Haugesund xG_for 1.65 vs Sogndal xG_against 1.52. Considering the visitors' offensive potency and the high league average, I back BTTS 'Yes' at ~70% probability vs 30% for 'No'.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

I calculated expected goals as the average of the home attack xG and the opponent’s defensive xG: Sogndal has an attack xG of 1.58 and Haugesund concedes 1.07 xG, yielding 1.33 expected goals for the home side; Haugesund has an attack xG of 1.65 and Sogndal concedes 1.52 xG, yielding 1.59 for the away side and a total of 2.92. Both teams have 100% of their season matches with a combined total over 1.5 goals, which is a very strong signal in favor of Over 1.5. Sogndal averages 12.5 shots per match with 6.0 on target, while Haugesund averages 13.67 shots with 6.33 on target; with conversion rates of 24% and 20% respectively, this translates into real scoring threat on both ends. Season shares for matches over 2.5 goals are 50% for Sogndal and 67% for Haugesund, and our xG=2.92 implies a probability above 50% for Over 2.5, though not as clear-cut as the 1.5 line. Based on this, I recommend backing Over 1.5 as the strongest signal; Over 2.5 is assessed at approximately 66% chance, while Over 3.5 is less likely (around 34%).

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

The strongest signal is the visitors taking the lead at the break: Haugesund have scored 6 first-half goals this season compared to Sogndal’s 1 (6 vs 1), and the share of leads at the break for away teams is 67% versus 50% for home teams. Recent form over the last 5 matches confirms this trend — Haugesund have won 80% of their last 5 games, while Sogndal have only 20% wins in that period, and the visitors led at half-time in 60% of those 5 matches versus 20% for the hosts. Qualitative analysis also favors the away side: average xG per game is 1.65 for Haugesund versus 1.58 for Sogndal, and Sogndal allow opponents to generate an average of 1.52 xG against them while Haugesund concede only 1.07 xG. Additionally, Haugesund have higher average goals by half-time (1.33 vs 0.5) and better HT points in the last 5 matches (2.2 vs 0.8), so the most likely scenario is the visitors leading at the break and winning after full-time (HT/FT = 2/2).
