Aalesund – Sandefjord

Aalesund host Sandefjord at Color Line Stadion in what promises to be a tightly contested battle between two teams locked on 24 points. The home side sit 14th, having secured five wins, nine draws and nine defeats while conceding 51 goals, whereas Sandefjord occupy 13th with six victories, six draws and eleven losses, boasting a much tighter defensive record of just 30 goals against. Both clubs will be desperate for the three points to climb out of the lower half of the table, and the narrow one‑goal difference in their head‑to‑head record this season adds an extra edge to the fixture. A win for either side could prove pivotal in the fight to avoid the relegation zone as the season reaches its climax.
