Where it pulls both ways. Stroemmen IF are the form side, but the meetings favour Sandnes Ulf: in the last nine meetings, Stroemmen IF won two, Sandnes Ulf won four and three were drawn.
The read. No side to back. An open game. Form and the meetings point different ways, so I back neither side. Their goals for and against point to an open game. Their records put over 2.5 goals at 55%. Six of the last nine meetings went over 2.5.
The bets. Best bet: Over 1.5 Goals at 1.18, 87% on the records (Stroemmen IF: over 1.5 goals in 8 of 10; Sandnes Ulf: over 1.5 goals in 5 of 5 away). Backup: 2nd Half - Over/Under: Over 0.5 at 1.16. It often rescues the bet, but it is no guarantee. Leave: Stroemmen IF or Over 2.5 Goals (no result call); Sandnes Ulf or Over 2.5 Goals (no result call); Double Chance: Stroemmen IF or Sandnes Ulf (no result call). Predicted score: Stroemmen IF 2-1 Sandnes Ulf (9% chance).
Every score's chance from both teams' checked games, never cut or rescaled. The lit square is the likeliest score that fits the read (an open game).
