Match description

Sandnes Ulf has the advantage in quality of chances: their away average xG is 1.49 versus Lyn’s home 1.01, and Sandnes averages 4 shots on target per match compared to 1 for the hosts. Defensively the visitors also look better — Lyn concedes 4.0 goals per home match while Sandnes concedes 2.0 away, and average xG against is 2.07 (Lyn) vs 0.94 (Sandnes). Despite that, Lyn is more efficient in finishing: shot conversion rate is 20% for Lyn versus 9% for Sandnes, and Lyn scores 2.0 goals per home match compared to Sandnes’s 1.0 away. In the last 5 matches Lyn scored 12 goals and averages 1.2 points per match, while Sandnes has 9 goals and averages 0.8 points, which partially evens things. Overall I expect a higher-scoring game and give a slight edge to Sandnes due to higher xG and more shots on target, so I back the away win.
