FK Haugesund vs Stabaek Prediction

In the game, what Haugesund lacks in their overall form is balanced by their h2h home ground advantage over Stabaek in the last decade.

They were unbeaten in the recent two league clashes and the goalless draw on the road with Sarpsborg last time out will be something to work upon for Jostein Grindhaug.

Stabaek will try to build upon their improved form this season. And with their lead over the host in the table, they share a similar chance to take the three points.

Since the match is sizing to be anyone’s game, the double chance favoring either side to win with 1.40 odds will probably be the best bet for the punters to yield some decent returns.

Furthermore, the host has scored only 7 goals in their 10 fixtures and 5 goals came at home. The Blue Ones have averaged 1.3 goals overall and have scored 8 goals in their 5 tours in the campaign.
