Moss
LWLWLW 🎢
Moss, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 2-1 OBOS-ligaen success versus Skeid.
Martin Andersen (51') scored for Skeid.
Fixtures featuring Moss have often been exciting encounters lately with a lot of goalmouth action the rule rather than the exception. Over their past 6 games alone, a total of 22 goals have gone in for both sides combined (at an average of 3.67 goals per game) with 8 of those coming from Moss.
Leading up to this clash, Moss:
- have not lost to Start in home games against them for the last 2 matches in the league.
- haven't lost in the league to Start in their last 5 games.
- haven't been defeated in their previous 10 home league matches. They have been so resilient here.

LWLDWD ⚖
In their previous game, Start drew 1-1 in the OBOS-ligaen match with Aalesunds FK.
Frederik Heiselberg (60') was the scorer for Aalesunds FK.
Start have attacked well in their most recent fixtures, scoring 9 goals in their last 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that Start have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 5 of those same outings. It will be interesting to find out whether or not that trend can be continued on into this next match.

🗞️
Team News: Moss
Availability isn’t a big problem, with just a single fitness concern for the Moss boss Thomas Myhre to be concerned about thanks to an otherwise robust group. Noah Alexandersson (Achilles tendon rupture) misses out.
ℹ️
Team News: Start
Start manager Sindre Tjelmeland has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. John Olav Norheim (Groin injury) and Deni Dashaev (Knee injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.
🔮
Prediction
Our assessment here is that Start will have a tough ask to score against this Moss outfit who we reckon should get the vital goal that wins it.
We’re going for a hard-fought contest, finishing with a 1-0 advantage for Moss when all is said and done.
Looking forward to this.
