Fredrikstad are without any injury issues heading into Sunday's outing, meaning Hagen has a fully-fit squad available to choose from.

As Fredrikstad have lost all of their last three games across all competitions, Hagen could make multiple changes to the starting team, though Emil Holten is likely to lead the line with three goals in nine league matches.

As for Sarpsborg, Anders Him (cruciate ligament) and Sondre Orjasaeter (thigh) are both ruled out of Sunday's encounter due to ongoing injury problems.

Aimar Sher is also a doubt for the visitors after coming off in their last outing due to an injury, meaning Harald Tangen could partner Mike Vestergard in midfield.

Daniel Karlsbakk has enjoyed a superb start to the Eliteserien campaign, scoring five goals in seven league matches, and the forward is expected to start in attack for the visitors.

Fredrikstad possible starting lineup:

Fischer; Woledzi, Fredriksen, Skaret; Eid, Owusu, Metcalfe, Molde; Sorlokk, Holten, Ohlenschlaeger

Sarpsborg 08 possible starting lineup:

Ndiaye; Wichne, Koch, Tebo, Jeahze; Tangen, Vestergard; Sanyang, Halvorsen, Haheim-Elveseter; Karlsbakk
