Out of their six losses so far, three have come at home and the other three away from home. They are on a two-game winning streak at home in the league, and both wins are with clean sheets.

Haugesund has three wins in their ten league fixtures in the schedule until now. They were on a three-game losing streak before pulling the 1-0 win at home against Rosenborg in the last clash.

Sarpsborg vs FK Haugesund Prediction

Sarpsborg turned around their form in the campaign after their plight of losses in their schedule at the start of this season. Haugesund has been unstable in their new season with a mixed form, which does not suggest a favoring factor for an away win.

The host will enjoy at least a slight ground advantage in the clash. Besides, they have stayed unbeaten against the visitors in their h2h encounters since 2016. So, this gives them an edge over the traveling side with a poor form on the road.

The safest option for the punters in the game will be to go with a draw no bet over the favorites. At 1.50 odds, Sarpsborg’s chances will probably yield decent returns for the punters. Another tip from the goals area will be over 1.5 goals with 1.40 odds as the best bet in the encounter.
