Sandefjord head into this fixture in decent shape, having won three of their last five at home, and their defensive record this season has been exceptional. A clean sheet rate of 75% in home games is well above the Eliteserien norm, and with an average of just 0.5 goals conceded per game on their own patch, they have clearly built a compact, hard-to-break-down structure. With BTTS at 0% in home matches compared to a league average of 48%, goals at Sandefjord's end tend to be a rare commodity.

Fredrikstad arrive in poor form, losing four of their last five away from home, and their defensive frailties on the road are stark. Conceding an average of 2.6 per away game with no clean sheets away all season tells its own story. Despite that, their away matches do tend to produce goals at the other end too.

This looks tighter and lower-scoring than Fredrikstad's away stats might initially suggest, with the home side's defensive solidity likely to be the defining factor.
