Strømsgodset IF
WLLLLL 🔻
Strømsgodset IF will be hoping to bounce back here after the 5-0 Eliteserien defeat in their last game at the hands of KFUM Oslo.
In that game, Strømsgodset IF had 41% possession and 9 attempts on goal with 1 of them on target. At the other end, KFUM-Kameratene had 13 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. David Hickson (53'), Obilor Okeke (59', 82'), Jonas Hjorth (69') and Teodor Haltvik (90') scored for KFUM Oslo.
Three or more goals per match were recorded in 5 of the last 6 fixtures where Strømsgodset IF have taken part. Their opponents scored 17 of them in this period whereas Strømsgodset IF amassed a tally of 6.
Going into this one, Strømsgodset IF are without a home win in the past 5 league games. Their fans aren't happy.
Vålerenga
LLDWLL
Since a losing effort in their last game against Molde FK in Eliteserien competition, Vålerenga and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.
In that game, Vålerenga managed 42% possession and 12 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. For Vålerenga, the goals were scored by Filip Erik Thorvaldsen (23') and Fidel Ambina (42'). Molde got 21 shots on goal with 7 of them on target. Magnus Wolff Eikrem (7'), Daniel Daga (80') and Fredrik Gulbrandsen (84') scored for Molde FK.
Vålerenga have had no problems opening up opposition defences of late, scoring 8 goals in their previous 6 matches. While their manager Geir Bakke will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Vålerenga have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 5 of those same outings. That pattern isn’t assured to be carried forward into this match, though.
🤜🤛

Team News: Strømsgodset IF
Availability isn’t a big problem, with just a single fitness concern for the Strømsgodset IF manager Jørgen Isnes to be concerned with from an otherwise fully-primed group of players. Eirik Ulland Andersen (Cruciate ligament tear) is sidelined.
In our view, Godset will probably go for a 4-3-3 system for the game, utilising Eirik Johansen, L. C. Vilsvik, Gustav Valsvik, F. Kristensen Dahl, Logi Tomasson, Herman Stengel, Kreshnik Krasniqi, Jonas Therkelsen, Samuel Silalahi, Marcus Mehnert and Marko Farji.
🗞️
Team News: Vålerenga
Vålerenga manager Geir Bakke has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Henrik Bjørdal (Knee injury) and Omar Bully (Knee injury) miss out here.
From our viewpoint, Enga seem most likely to play in a 4-3-3 system by sending out Jacob Storevik, Hakon Sjatil, Aaron Kiil Olsen, Sebastian Jarl, Noah Pallas, Stian Sjøvold, Fidel Brice Ambina, Carl Lange, Filip Thorvaldsen, Mees Rijks and Elias Sørensen.
🧠
Prediction
We’re of the view that Vålerenga and Strømsgodset IF should both be able to find the back of the net at least once here although it’s difficult at this stage to select a clear winner.
A close call, and we think a draw is quite likely - as are goals. We’re therefore seeing a hard-fought contest, finishing with a score draw at the end of the match.
