Goal Statistics

Sandefjord Fotball's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday afternoon, not least because IK Start have conceded in each of their last 8 Eliteserien outings. A PG of 1.7 for A. Tegström's side suggests that run should continue.

Sandefjord Fotball's defensive record is to be admired, A. Tegström's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Eliteserien outings. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for IK Start makes sense in this context.
