Lillestrøm SK, buoyed by their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 3-1 Eliteserien victory over Sandefjord.

In that game, Lillestrøm SK managed 53% possession and 13 attempts on goal with 5 on target. For Lillestrøm SK, the goals were scored by Lars Ranger (13') and Gustav Nyheim (84'). Sandefjord had 12 attempts on goal with 3 of them on target. Nikolaj Möller (50') was the scorer for Sandefjord.

An interesting theme in recent Lillestrøm SK games is the number of results with a nil in them.

From their previous 6 clashes before this one, in as many as 5 of them a wager on "Both Teams to Score" would've been a losing one. Let’s find out whether or not that trend will end up being continued on in this game.

Their previous form shows that Lillestrøm SK:

• have not registered a win against Kristiansund in their previous 3 league games.
• have not been beaten in their last 2 league matches at home.

Since a losing effort in their last game against Molde FK in Eliteserien action, Kristiansund will be hoping to turn things around here.

In that game, Kristiansund had 37% possession and 11 shots at goal with 2 of them on target. Molde had 9 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target. Vebjørn Hoff (42') was the scorer for Molde FK.

The stats tell the story, and Kristiansund have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, conceding 7 goals in all. At the back, Kristiansund have not been doing too well.

Their past results show that Kristiansund:

• are undefeated by Lillestrøm SK in away games against them for the last 4 matches in the league. An impressive run.
• are without an away win for the past 9 league matches. Very poor, indeed.
