Match Preview: Haugesund W Hosts Odd at Haugesund Sparebank Arena
This weekend, we look forward to an exciting match in the 1st Division Women in Norway as Haugesund W takes on Odd at their home ground, Haugesund Sparebank Arena.
Haugesund W has been in brilliant form with an impressive unbeaten streak. With only two losses in 19 matches this season so far and a trend of consecutive victories, they look like a challenging opponent for Odd. Haugesund’s attack has been formidable, averaging 2.4 goals per match, and they have been especially deadly during the periods from the 31st to the 60th minute, where they score the most. Their defense has also been solid, with only 1.1 goals conceded on average per match, making them hard to break down.
On the other hand, Odd has had a more inconsistent season with six wins, four draws, and nine losses. They are struggling with form, having lost their last two matches—one against Molde W and one against Start W, both by clear margins. Odd averages 1.4 goals per match, but defensively, they have been less stable, conceding an average of 1.7 goals per match.
Looking back at the teams’ last encounter in March, Odd was the dominant side with a 2-1 victory at home at Skagerak Arena. This might give them a psychological edge, even though much has changed throughout the season.
With Haugesund’s solid home record and their sharper attacking form lately, Odd may face a tough challenge ahead. The crowd at Haugesund Sparebank Arena is likely to witness a team in top form looking to extend their good run and avenge the loss from the season’s first meeting against Odd.
No matter how the match unfolds, it is sure to be a game filled with passion and excitement. This is a must-see match for all football enthusiasts in and around Haugesund.
