This match pits two teams that rarely keep clean sheets. Brann have scored in seven of their last eight home encounters with Sarpsborg, and their attack is one of the most productive in the league (23 goals in 11 matches). However, the club's infirmary is overflowing – goalkeeper Dungeland and defenders De Reeuw and Boakye are out, so there's little hope for a reliable home side.
Sarpsborg's defense is also unreliable, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per match. The team has conceded in 100% of its away matches this season, but has scored in five of its last seven. Under these circumstances, betting on goals from both sides seems extremely logical.
Their head-to-head record in Bergen confirms this trend: in four of their last five encounters at Brann, the teams have traded goals.
