Start VS Sandnes

Start host Sandnes for this Norwegian OBOS-Ligaen round 15 clash at Sparebanken Sør Arena in Kristianstad. This is the second tier of Norwegian footballand is not of great level by European standards but is surely a lucrative league to bet on! The odds in the hosts have been coming down today but are still too high in my view taking into account expected squad available for each team’s coach to choose from. Just by taking a look at the league table this pick might, perhaps, seem weird for some of my fans – let’s take a closer look..

I will not be fooled by the standings are as the hosts are clearly higher up than Sandnes in my power ratings that reflect the teams’ pure class. I rate Start as the 3rd best team in OBOS-Ligaen. However, they currently occupy the 8th place in the standings with 22 points to their account but I expect them to start climbing up with a win today! They have a very good goal difference of 25:15 - better than for example Ranheim - in 3rd place - have.. They have been very unlucky in terms of expected points so far this season and would have deserved some four points more.. They are very clear favorites at home here. It is true that they do not have an impressive record at home and the home advantage in this league on average is not as high as for example in The English Premier League or The French Ligue 1 but Start do have good home fans so this factor should be taken into account accordingly!

In terms of players’ total market value, according to well-known and respected German website Transfermarket.com, the host are of better quality. Their squad is valued at over four million euros – the visitors’ number is just around 2.7 million. Players’ total market value is, in fact, a surprisingly good indicator of the team’s level of on the pitch but can also be misleading sometimes.. However, Sandnes’s players are surely not worth even the 2.7 million. Perhaps 1.9 million would be a more accurate estimation. As fir Start, the about 4 million is too low and I want to mention especially the talented left-back Basilio Ndong, 23, from Equatorial Guinea. He is definitely worth more than the estimated 250 000 euros and player to watch this season!

Sandnes were okay in their most recent match beating Ranheim 3-2 at home but a draw would not have been an unjustified result either. Before this they defeated a struggling team Grorud 3-1 at home but I would say the hosts were even slightly better on the pitch but were, once again, simply very ineffective in offense.. Before this Sandnes were very disappointing and lost 1-4 at home in the hands if a mediocre team Raufoss. Their defense has not been solid and they would need to improve especially in that area of the game is they want to take even one point here.. They have allowed 24 goals, more than Bryne in the 13th place, and have scored just 22.. Start were solid in their most recent match beating a dangerous team KFUM Oslo away from home 1-0 and before that they lost to a totally dominant team in this league, Brann, at home but still played quite well and made the visitors work hard for the three points!

在克里斯蒂安斯塔德的 Sparebanken Sør Arena 举行的挪威 OBOS-Ligaen 第 15 轮比赛中开始主办 Sandnes。这是挪威足球的第二梯队，按照欧洲标准来说并不是很高的水平，但肯定是一个有利可图的联赛！今天东道主的赔率一直在下降，但考虑到每支球队的教练可供选择的预期阵容，我认为仍然太高了。看看联赛表，这个选秀权对我的一些粉丝来说可能看起来很奇怪——让我们仔细看看.. 我不会被积分榜所迷惑，因为在反映球队纯粹级别的我的功率评级中，东道主显然高于桑内斯。我将 Start 评为 OBOS-Ligaen 的第三佳球队。然而，他们目前以 22 分的成绩在积分榜上排名第 8，但我希望他们今天能以胜利开始攀升！他们有一个非常好的净胜球 25:15 - 比例如兰海姆更好 - 在第三位 - 有.. 他们本赛季到目前为止，在预期积分方面一直很不走运，本应再得到四分。他们在这里很明显是主场的最爱。诚然，他们在主场的战绩并不令人印象深刻，而且这个联赛的平均主场优势不如英超联赛或法甲联赛那样高，但 Start 确实有很好的主场球迷，所以这个因素应该应予以考虑！

从球员总市值来看，德国知名网站Transfermarket.com的数据显示，主机质量更好。他们的球队价值超过 400 万欧元——参观人数仅为 270 万左右。事实上，球员的总市值是衡量球队在球场上水平的一个非常好的指标，但有时也可能会产生误导。然而，桑内斯的球员肯定连270万都不值。也许 190 万是更准确的估计。作为第一个开始，大约 400 万太低了，我想特别提一下来自赤道几内亚的23岁的天才左后卫巴西利奥·恩东。他的身价绝对超过本赛季估计的 25 万欧元和值得观看的球员！

桑德尼斯在最近一场主场3-2击败兰海姆的比赛中表现不错，但平局也不是不合理的结果。在此之前，他们在主场以 3-1 击败了苦苦挣扎的球队格鲁鲁德，但我想说的是东道主在球场上的表现甚至稍好一些，但在进攻方面再次变得非常低效。在此之前，桑内斯非常令人失望，并以 1-4 输掉了比赛如果在主场，拉福斯队手中的一支平庸球队。他们的防守并不稳固，他们需要改进，尤其是在比赛的那方面，他们甚至想在这里拿一分。他们丢了 24 个球，超过了第 13 位的布赖恩，并且只进了 22 个球。 . 他们在最近一场客场1-0击败危险球队KFUM奥斯陆的比赛中开局稳固，在此之前他们输给了在本次联赛中完全占据统治地位的球队，布兰，在主场但仍然发挥得相当好，他们会为三分努力！
