Updated 3rd Division, Group 3 Standings After Fyllingsdalen vs Austevoll
The result gives Austevoll a valuable points injection at a critical stage of the 2026 league campaign. Their record now stands at four wins, four draws and four defeats, with 27 goals scored and 30 conceded. That leaves them with a -3 goal difference but, more importantly, enough points to create a healthier distance from the bottom three.
Fyllingsdalen, by contrast, remain in the relegation places. Their table line is now one win, three draws and eight defeats, with 13 goals scored and 33 conceded. A -20 goal difference is currently the worst in the division, and it underlines the scale of the problem facing them as the season moves forward.
How Austevoll’s Win Changed Their League Position
Austevoll’s victory moves them onto 16 points, level with Fana, who sit eighth due to a superior goal difference. Although Austevoll remain ninth, the win materially changes the tone of their season. Instead of being pulled toward the relegation conversation, they now sit five points ahead of Stord in 10th and six points ahead of both Gneist and Asane Fotball 2.
That cushion matters. In a compact lower half of the table, three points can quickly redefine a club’s outlook. Austevoll are not yet in the upper-tier chase, but they have placed themselves in a far more secure competitive lane. The gap to Djerv 1919 in seventh is only one point, while Fana are level on points directly above them. That means Austevoll’s immediate target is no longer survival alone; it is climbing into the upper middle of the group.
Austevoll’s Table Profile After the Result
Austevoll’s attacking output remains one of their strongest assets. With 27 goals from 12 matches, they have scored more than several teams above them, including Askøy FK and Djerv 1919. The concern remains defensive leakage, with 30 goals conceded, but this result gives them the platform to correct that issue without the added pressure of being pinned near the relegation zone.
The standings now present Austevoll as a team with upward mobility. They are seven points behind second-placed Vard Haugesund, but the more realistic short-term equation is to overtake Fana and close in on Djerv 1919. Their win over Fyllingsdalen has made that route visible.
What the Defeat Means for Fyllingsdalen
For Fyllingsdalen, the loss is damaging because it does not merely deny them points; it strengthens a direct lower-table rival. They remain 13th, inside the relegation zone, and are now four points behind Gneist in 11th, the first side currently outside the drop places. Asane Fotball 2, also in the relegation zone, sit 12th on 10 points, four clear of Fyllingsdalen.
The problem is compounded by volume. Fyllingsdalen have already played 12 matches, the same as Austevoll and Asane Fotball 2, but more than several teams above them. That means they cannot rely heavily on games in hand to repair the gap. Their survival route must come through immediate wins and a sharper defensive structure.
Fyllingsdalen’s Relegation Picture
Fyllingsdalen’s six-point total leaves them only one point above bottom side Varegg, although Varegg have played two fewer matches. That makes the position even more precarious. If Varegg convert their games in hand, Fyllingsdalen could be pushed to the foot of the table.
The goal difference is another serious obstacle. At -20, Fyllingsdalen are not only losing ground in points but also carrying a heavy tiebreak disadvantage. In a tight relegation battle, that can become decisive. Their next matches now carry elevated pressure because the gap to safety is widening and their margin for slow recovery is shrinking.
Top of the Table Context
Os TF continue to lead the 3rd Division, Group 3 standings with 27 points from 12 matches, holding the promotion position. Vard Haugesund are second on 23 points from 11 games, while Askøy FK sit third with 22 points. The upper race remains competitive, but the Austevoll-Fyllingsdalen result is most significant in the middle and lower sections of the table.
Austevoll’s rise to 16 points gives them breathing room below and a chase above. Fyllingsdalen’s defeat, however, reinforces the separation between the bottom three and the rest. The table now has a clearer fault line: teams around 16 points are looking upward, while those around six to 10 points are fighting to avoid being cut adrift.
Standings Impact Summary
Austevoll emerge from this fixture with momentum, security and a stronger league position. They are ninth, level with Fana on points, and within reach of the top half. Their victory turns a potentially tense mid-season phase into an opportunity to climb.
Fyllingsdalen leave the match in a much more fragile state. Still 13th, four points from the current safety line and carrying the division’s weakest goal difference, they face a survival campaign that now requires urgency rather than patience. In practical terms, this result separates Austevoll from the relegation narrative and pushes Fyllingsdalen deeper into it.
