📊 Form Guide

Aalesunds FK

LLLLWL

Aalesunds FK will be looking to improve on their last outing here following a 7-0 Eliteserien loss in their previous game against Bodo Glimt.

Hugo Vetlesen (38'), Ulrik Saltnes (44', 56'), Ola Solbakken (70'), Kasper Junker (81', 94') and Fredrik Bjørkan (91') scored for Bodo Glimt.

Their more recent scorelines can’t hide the truth which is that things desperately need to get better in the Aalesunds FK rearguard. Tangotrøyene have watched an embarrassing 18 goals go in at the wrong end as far as they are concerned over the course of their previous 6 clashes. Such a trend won’t necessarily be sustained into this next game, however.

Looking at their past form shows that Aalesunds FK:

• haven't won against Vålerenga in their previous 3 league games.
• haven’t won at home in the past 6 matches in the league. Their fans aren't happy.

Vålerenga

LWWDWW

Vålerenga will come into the encounter following on from a 2-0 Eliteserien win versus ODD Grenland in their last match.

For Vålerenga, goals were scored by Herolind Shala (39') and Matthías Vilhjálmsson (86').

A sequence of hard-working displays by the Vålerenga defensive players has seen their ‘goals against’ tally standing at 4 from their previous 6 outings overall. In that period of time, their own forwards have managed to score 12.

Pre-game facts show that Vålerenga:

• have not lost to Aalesunds FK in games played away from home for the previous 2 league matches.
• are unbeaten in their last 2 league matches away from home.

🗞️ Team News: Aalesunds FK

Nearly everyone is up for selection, with just a single fitness concern for the Aalesunds FK boss Lars Nilsen to be concerned about from of an almost fully healthy group. Torbjörn Agdestein (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will miss out.

📋 Team News: Vålerenga

With a fully injury-free group available for selection, Vålerenga manager Dag-Eilev Fagermo has zero fitness concerns to speak of before this clash.

💡 Prediction

We’re of the opinion that Aalesunds FK must be fancied to breach the defence of this Vålerenga outfit, but one goal probably won’t quite prevent defeat.

We are therefore anticipating both teams to score in a 1-2 win for Vålerenga by the conclusion of the game. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
