Lillestrom vs Stromsgodset Betting Tips and Odds

Bet365 have the following odds available for this match:

Lillestrom are at 23/20 to win, a draw is at 12/5, and a Stromsgodset win is at 23/10.

The odds are long here for Stromsgodset due to the fact that they are playing away from home and are lower in the table than their hosts.  They do, though, have an even record in this series, but a wager on a  Lillestrom win looks the best way forward due to the lack of draws that they have produced so far, none of which came at home.  Because they are facing a team below them, a win looks likely.

A 1-0 win for Lillestrom could bring you 15/1 odds if correct at full time.  This looks a decent bet here due to the fact that Lillestrom and Stromsgodset don't score a ton of goals and shouldn't be all that far separated due to their positions in the table.

Lillestrom gets an important win to possibly jump into the top half of the table.

Correct Score Predicted: Lillestrom 1-0 Stromsgodset

Team News

Arne Erlandsen looks to have a full side to pick from for this fixture.

Key Man

Left midfielder Fredrik Krogstad his first goal of the season on Saturday, and that will be a great encouragement for him and his team going into this match.  The 22 year old has the ability, but he just has to find the necessary consistency to help them push on further.

Team Form

Lillestrom have a loss and four wins in their last five matches.  They won 4-1 at home over Tromso before winning in the 3rd round of the cup 2-4 at Ullensaker.  They continued to win with a 2-4 away win over Stabaek and a 1-0 home win over Viking in the league.  Last time out, they lost 3-1 away to Valerenga.

Lillestrom Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line-up: 4-4-2

Team News

Ronny Delia will be without attacking midfielder Bassel Jradi and forward Marcus Pedersen due to suspensions.

Key Man

Attacking wide midfielder Eirik Andersen has started the season very well for Stromsgodset.  He's scored five goals and provided three assists in just ten matches so far, including a goal in the 1-1 game against Molde.  Look for him to be their main threat going forward in search of goals.

Team Form

Stromsgodset have two draws, two losses, and a win in their last five matches.  They won 4-2 at home over Viking in the league before losing 2-1 away to Mjondalen.  Back in the league, they lost 3-1 away to Rosenborg.  They then drew 1-1 both away from home to Valerenga and then at home to Molde.

Stromsgodset Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line-up: 4-2-3-1

Stromsgodset sit in 14th in a 16 team table right now, which would put them in a relegation playoff if the season were to end right now. But a result here would be massive as it could put Lillestrom in that spot. With the table so packed down toward the bottom, building some momentum now could be massive in creating separation. With all of that said, these teams are very evenly matched, so the home side will be favored slightly.

Lillestrom have been hit or miss at home. They have three wins and four losses in seven matches there at home.
