✍️ Match Preview
Match Analysis
Sandefjord host Stabaek at Release Arena in Eliteserien (matchday 13). Kick-off is Sunday 9 July 2023 at 17:00 UK time.
Form Analysis
Looking at their last 10 matches, Sandefjord stand at 2W 3D 5L — 0.90 PPG. Last five: L L W L L. They are averaging 1.30 goals per game and conceding 1.90 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%).
In front of their own supporters, Sandefjord have posted 3W 3D 4L from their last 10 home games — 1.20 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.90 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Across their last 10 games, Stabaek have recorded 4W 2D 4L — 1.40 PPG. Last five: W L D L L. They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.60. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Stabaek's away record over their last 5 away games: 1W 0D 4L (0.60 PPG). Away from home they average 1.20 goals scored and 3.00 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture. Their away PPG of 0.60 is notably below their overall 1.40 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Sandefjord 0.90 PPG, Stabaek 1.40 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
Both teams have scored in at least 70% of each side's games (from Sandefjord's last 10 home games and Stabaek's last 5 away games). At that combined rate, BTTS Yes is as well-evidenced as it gets — the data strongly backs two-way scoring.
H2H Record
There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 4 H2H matches, Sandefjord have won 1, Stabaek 2, with 1 draw — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own.
Goals have been at a premium in this fixture — just 1.8 per game across the 4 H2H matches we hold, giving Under 2.5 a clear head-to-head base rate. The most recent of those, on 26 Sep 2021, ended Sandefjord 0–3 Stabaek — a Stabaek win.
With a balanced win record and just 1.8 goals per game, the H2H data points toward a tight, low-scoring contest — Under 2.5 is the stronger head-to-head angle regardless of which side wins.
In-Play Profile
Sandefjord in-play tendencies (last 12 games, 4 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 75% of their matches in home games; of the 4 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 50%; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 75% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 42%; they fail to score in 42% of games.
Stabaek in-play tendencies (last 12 games, 4 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 100% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 67% of the time; of the 4 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 25%; BTTS occurs in 100% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 100% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 42%.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Sandefjord 50% versus Stabaek 58%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Sandefjord 58% | Stabaek 67%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Sandefjord 2.80 xG and Stabaek 1.05 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Sandefjord attack 1.192 / defence 0.956 | Stabaek attack 0.903 / defence 1.370. League average goals — home 1.714 / away 1.222. Stabaek's defence rating of 1.370 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Sandefjord's projected output up. Data: built from Sandefjord's last 41 games and Stabaek's last 12.
Result probabilities: Sandefjord 74% | Draw 15% | Stabaek 12%. Fair-value odds: Sandefjord 1.36 | Draw 6.74 | Stabaek 8.66. The model has a clear lean to Sandefjord (74%) — a 59pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 74% | BTTS Yes probability 61% | Total xG 3.85. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 74% — a total xG of 3.85 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 61% — both xG figures (2.80 / 1.05) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Sandefjord are the pick at 74% — clear model lean.
Poisson projects 3.85 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 74% probability — mixed conviction, supported by recent form (Sandefjord's last 10 home games and Stabaek's last 5 away games) averaging 3.7 goals per game — though the H2H data averaging only 1.8 goals per game across 4 H2H matches points the other way.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 61%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Sandefjord 70% (last 10 home games) | Stabaek 80% (last 5 away games).

📈 Form Insight
Form at a Glance
Across their last 12 outings, Sandefjord have picked up 0.75 PPG on a 2W 3D 7L record — L-L-W-L-L across the most recent five.
Stabaek's form line: 4W 3D 5L from 12 games, 1.25 PPG, last five W-L-D-L-L.
Put side by side, Stabaek are the form team by 0.50 points per game — a gap wide enough to matter, though form alone rarely tells the whole story against Sandefjord.
Venue Form
On home soil, Sandefjord have posted 1.75 PPG from their last 4 home games (2W 1D 1L). That's noticeably better than their 0.75 PPG overall — Sandefjord are a different proposition at home than their general record suggests.
On the road, Stabaek have gone 1W 0D 3L from their last 4 away games — 0.75 PPG when travelling. That's a step down from their 1.25 PPG overall record — away form has been the weaker part of Stabaek's recent record.
Comparing the two in their relevant venue splits, Sandefjord come out ahead — a more targeted read than the overall PPG figures above, since it strips out games played in the opposite context.
Goals in Recent Form
Sandefjord are averaging 1.17 goals scored and 1.92 conceded per game recently; Stabaek are on 1.25 scored and 1.67 conceded.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
The points were shared at Release Arena, Regular Season - 13, as Sandefjord and Stabaek drew 0-0 in the Eliteserien. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Sandefjord 2.80 xG and Stabaek 1.05 xG, a combined 3.85. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Sandefjord fell 2.8 short of their projected output. Stabaek landed 1.1 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Sandefjord attack 1.19 / defence 0.96 against Stabaek attack 0.90 / defence 1.37, drawn from 41/12 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Sandefjord 74% | Draw 15% | Stabaek 12%, with Sandefjord to win its most likely call at 74%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 15% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 74%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 90% and missed. Over 3.5 was 54% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 61% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 62% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Sandefjord 58%, Stabaek 67%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 54%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Sandefjord's trading profile (12 games, 4 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 50% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 42% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Stabaek's trading profile (12 games, 4 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 58% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 25% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Form vs Result
On form, Stabaek arrived the stronger side — 1.25 PPG against 0.75. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Sandefjord (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.25 scoring average — below par going forward. Stabaek (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.50 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 2.75 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
