📏 Form Guide
Stabæk
LLLLLL 0

In that match, Stabæk managed 54% possession and 15 attempts at goal with 7 of them on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Stabæk was Simen Wangberg (15').

Stabæk have really struggled up front of late. Their sum of goals stands at just 3 against opposing sides during the course of their previous six outings. In those games, Stabæk have also seen the number of goals against them total 12. That sort of trend might not be sustained into this match, however.
Looking at their past form shows that Stabæk:
- are winless against SK Brann in their previous 4 matches in the league.
- have not won at home in their last 4 league games. Their fans aren't happy.

ℹ️ Team News: Stabæk
The Stabæk boss Lars Bohinen will be grateful to have no fitness concerns whatsoever coming into this match with a completely injury-free squad available to choose from.
In all likelihood, De Blaa look set to opt for a 3-5-2 formation and select Isak Pettersson, Simen Wangberg, Nicolai Næss, Nikolas Walstad, Tobias Pachonik, Curtis Edwards, Fredrik Krogstad, Gaute Höberg Vetti, Aleksander Andresen, Kevin Kabran and Mushaga Bakenga.
📋 Team News: SK Brann
SK Brann boss Eirik Horneland has to currently contend with reduced team options. Magnus Warming (Groin Injury), Ole Didrik Blomberg (Groin Surgery), Ruben Kristiansen (Groin Surgery) and Mads Sande (Cruciate Ligament Surgery) can’t be considered.
We reckon that SK Brann seem likely to play in a 4-3-3 lineup with a starting lineup of Matias Dyngeland, Svenn Crone, Japhet Sery Larsen, Thore Pedersen, Joachim Soltvedt, Felix Horn Myhre, Sivert Nilsen, Sander Kartum, Frederik Borsting, Bard Finne and Niklas Castro.
🧠 Prediction
Our pre-match assessment is that SK Brann should be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.
At the other end, Stabæk will not find it easy to make a breakthrough, although we do think that it’s probable they’ll be scoring.
We can therefore see a comfortable 1-3 winning margin for SK Brann at the end of this one.
