Lyn

LLLLDW

Lyn, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 0-3 OBOS-ligaen success versus Aalesunds FK.

For Lyn, goals were scored by Henrik Kristiansen (67') and Andreas Hellum (76').

It has been a rare occasion in recent times where Lyn have kept a clean sheet. In fact, Lyn have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, leaking 14 goals on the way. That sort of pattern isn’t assured to be carried forward into this match, of course.

A look at their previous results shows us that Lyn:

• have not won against Vålerenga in their previous 2 league matches.
• are without a home win in the past 5 league games. Their fans aren't happy.

Vålerenga

DWLDWL ⚖

After tasting defeat last time out to Stabæk in OBOS-ligaen competition, Vålerenga will be hoping to turn things around here.

The only name on the scoresheet from Vålerenga was Mees Rijks (41'). Bassekou Diabaté (6') and Kasper Pedersen (60', 62') scored for Stabæk.

Looking at their form, and Vålerenga have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 8 goals overall. Defensively, Vålerenga have seen their frailties exposed.

Heading into this fixture, Vålerenga are undefeated in their last 2 league matches away from home.

🤜🤛 Head to head

Looking at their past head-to-head clashes going back to 20/06/2007 tells us that Lyn have won 3 of these games and Vålerenga 1, with the number of drawn games being 2.

There were also goals galore in those games, with 22 overall at an average of 3.67 goals per match.

📋 Team News: Lyn

The Lyn manager Kent Bergersen will be happy not to have any fitness worries to speak of coming into this match with a completely healthy squad to choose from.

📰 Team News: Vålerenga

Vålerenga boss Geir Bakke has multiple availability issues to deal with. Omar Bully (Knee injury) and Jacob Dicko Eng (Cruciate ligament tear) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

💡 Prediction

Our feeling is that Lyn will have a tough ask to score goals against this Vålerenga lineup who we reckon should win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.

We’re therefore seeing a hard-fought 0-1 win for Vålerenga when all is said and done.

Let’s see how this one goes.
