Stabæk

LLLLLL 🆘

Since a loss in their previous game against SK Brann in Eliteserien action, Stabæk and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

In that game, Stabæk managed 48% possession and 13 attempts on goal with 2 of them on target. For their opponents, Brann got 12 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. Bård Finne (12') was the scorer for SK Brann.

The forward players for Stabæk have struggled for goals over their last 6 games, netting the unsatisfactory return of just 3. In those fixtures, De Blaa have also seen the collective goal aggregate against them equal 12. That kind of trend might not be carried forward into this next game, however.

Taking a look at their past results, Stabæk:

• haven't been defeated by Aalesunds FK in games played away from home for the previous 2 matches in the league.
• have not won away from home in their last 8 league matches. A poor run.

📰 Team News: Aalesunds FK

Availability isn’t a big problem, with just one fitness concern for the Aalesunds FK boss Christian Johnsen to contend with from an otherwise complete set of players. Alexander Ammitzbøll (Cruciate Ligament Injury) misses out.

In all likelihood, Tangotrøyene could make use of the 4-3-3 formation for the game and select Sten Grytebust, Erik Ansok Frøysa, Amidou Diop, Simen Vatne Haram, John Kitolano, Henrik Melland, Erlend Segberg, Markus Karlsbakk, B. Martin Kristensen, Martin Ramsland and Isaac Atanga.

🗞️ Team News: Stabæk

Thanks to a completely injury-free group available to choose from, the Stabæk manager Bob Bradley has zero fitness concerns whatsoever before this match. Herman Geelmuyden is ineligible for this match because of suspension.

We reckon that De Blaa will likely play in a 4-3-3 lineup, giving starts to Isak Pettersson, Sturla Ottesen, Nicolai Næss, Kasper Pedersen, Nikolas Walstad, Curtis Edwards, Fredrik Krogstad, Gaute Höberg Vetti, Rasmus Eggen Vinge, Luca Kjerrumgaard and Kevin Kabran.
