Sandnes ULF comes into this match in excellent form, winning four of their last five league games. They are highly efficient in front of goal, averaging 1.62 goals per match overall, but their away defense is a major concern, conceding an average of 2.0 goals per away fixture. This suggests an open game where both sides will find opportunities. Sandnes ULF's away matches have been particularly high-scoring, with a 92% rate of over 1.5 goals across the season.

Tactically, both teams are familiar with 3-5-2 setups, which often leads to wingback battles and space on the flanks. Given Bryne's high home scoring average and Sandnes ULF's defensive struggles on the road, the hosts are expected to find the net. However, Sandnes ULF's recent winning momentum makes them dangerous on the counter-attack, especially in the second half where they score 74% of their goals (1.23 average in the 2nd half).
