SK Brann come into this fixture as deserved favourites and continue to impress when playing in Bergen. Their home performances have been a major strength throughout recent seasons, with Brann regularly dominating possession and creating a high volume of chances against visiting sides.
Sarpsborg are capable of causing problems going forward, but their away record remains a concern. Defensively they have shown vulnerability against stronger attacking teams, often conceding opportunities when put under sustained pressure. Facing Brann away from home is one of the tougher assignments in Norwegian football, especially with Brann's aggressive attacking style.
The hosts also hold the stronger squad on paper and generally perform well against mid-table opposition. Their ability to control the tempo and create chances from wide areas should give Sarpsborg plenty of problems throughout the match.
Brann know that home games are crucial if they want to remain in the title race and this looks like a good opportunity to collect another three points. Sarpsborg should compete, but over 90 minutes the quality and consistency of the home side should prove decisive
