Sandnes Ulf (home)
- Sandnes Ulf are winless in three in the 1. Division 2026 (D1, L2), averaging 0.67 goals scored and 1.67 goals conceded per game at home.
- Arturo Max Cleveland’s Sandnes play a wide, fast-paced style of soccer where the focus is on exploiting space behind defenses with pace and quick transitions.
- However, this has left them vulnerable in defense, and they will be looking to exploit the space behind Sogndal’s defensive line.
Sogndal IL (away)
- Sogndal IL have failed to win any of their three away matches in the 1. Division 2026 (D1, L2), scoring 1.00 and conceding 3.33 goals per away game.
- Luis Pimenta’s men prefer a more measured and controlled style of play, where they look to overload central areas and maintain possession in the midfield.
- Since he has taken the helm, Sogndal have looked a tough team to beat, but they have found a better balance between their attacking play and defensive structure.
Head-to-Head
Sandnes Ulf and Sogndal IL last met in the 1. Division 2024, where a single goal at home was enough for Sandnes to earn a 1-0 win over their visitors.
Key Players
Pimenta’s influence is evident in the way Sogndal IL have been defending and attacking in recent weeks, and with the form of Tuomas Pippola , who has scored four of Sogndal IL’s last ten goals in just five games, and the creativity of Onni Helen , who has assisted four of Sogndal’s last five goals , they have a strong chance of taking all three points on Monday.
