📰 Team News: Sandefjord
There’s just one fitness concern for the Sandefjord gaffer Hans Erik Ødegaard to be concerned about from of an almost fully healthy group. Sander Moen Foss (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) is out of contention.
We think that Guttane will probably employ a 4-3-3 system featuring Jacob Storevik, Lars Markmanrud, Jesper Taaje, Quint Jansen, Ian Smeulers, Sander Risan Mørk, William Kurtovic, Aleksander Nilsson, Mohamed Ofkir, A. Ruud Tveter and Franklin Nyenetue.
📋 Team News: Vålerenga
Thanks to a largely full-strength squad, there is just the one fitness problem for the Vålerenga manager Dag-Eilev Fagermo to be concerned about. Odin Thiago Holm (Meniscal Injury) won’t be playing here.
We’re of the thinking that Enga seem most likely to play in a 4-3-3 system using C. Kjetil Haug, Vegar Hedenstad, Ivan Näsberg, B. Ingi Bjarnason, Leonard Zuta, Henrik Björdal, Petter Strand, Tobias Christensen, Aron Dönnum, V. Örn Kjartansson and Osame Sahraoui.
✨ Prediction
Our feeling is that Sandefjord could find themselves struggling to find the net against this Vålerenga team who we think should get the win and a maybe even keep a clean sheet as well.
We’re therefore expecting a 0-1 winning score for Vålerenga at the end of the 90 minutes.
Let’s see.
