📋 Team News: ODD Grenland

The ODD Grenland boss Kenneth Dokken will be grateful to have no fitness concerns at all before this game owing to a completely injury-free squad available for selection.

In our view, Oddrane may well line up in a 4-3-3 formation, utilising Andre Hansen, Espen Ruud, Mihajlo Ivancevic, Tony Miettinen, Josef Brian Baccay, F. R. Joergensen, Solomon Owusu, T. Hammer Svendsen, B. C. Bang-Kittilsen, Mikael Ingebrigtsen and F. Temesgen Tewelde.

📋 Team News: Sandefjord

Sandefjord boss Hans Erik Ødegaard has a number of players out of action. Marcus Melchior (unknown injury) and Danilo Al-Saed (unknown injury) can’t be considered.

We reckon that Guttane could decide to make use of a 4-3-3 system, settling for Hugo Keto, F. Carson Pedersen, F. Tobias Berglie, Stian Kristiansen, Christopher Cheng, Sander Risan, Filip Ottosson, Simon Amin, S. Holm Mathisen, A. Ruud Tveter and Eman Markovic.

🔮 Prediction

Sandefjord will have to perform well to score goals against this ODD Grenland lineup who we reckon should score at least once to put them ahead.

Our tip is therefore for a hard-fought 1-0 winning margin for ODD Grenland at the end of this game.
