Odd and Lillestrom to serve up plenty of goals

Odd BK vs Lillestrom SK - 17/07/2022

Odd and Lillestrom to serve up plenty of goals
2604

Mid-table outfit, Odd, will play host to 2nd placed visitors of the Norwegian Eliteserien, Lillestrom, in Sunday evening’s encounter at the Skagerak Arena, where the hosts will not only be looking to claim a major scalp but also grab the all-important three points which could lift Odd to within striking distance of the top three in the division.

Recent results have been promising for Odd who bring a three-match unbeaten run in the Norwegian top flight into Sunday’s clash on the back of wins against Valerenga and Bodo/Glimt, the latter currently sitting in 4th spot in the Eliteserien.

There’s also plenty of reason to expect a few goals in this fixture as well, as three out of Odd’s last five games overall have seen 3 goals or more scored, while in their own backyard at the Skagerak Arena, the goals have been fairly flying in so far this season.

A total of 23 goals overall have been scored in the seven home games that Odd have played to date this term, while the bigger picture shows 17 of Odd’s last 20 home games have resulted in over 2.5 goals (85%).

Onto Lillestrom and the visitors will be eager to return to winning ways in the Norwegian top flight after their disappointing 1-0 defeat at home to Viking last weekend which became a second defeat in three games for the 2nd placed outfit.

Everything had been going so smoothly for Lillestrom who had started this new Eliteserien campaign being unbeaten in their opening 11 games of the season.

But the two recent defeats to Stromsgodset and Viking may have unsettled them a little.

However, goals may also not be too far away where Lillestrom are concerned either as five of the visitors’ last seven games overall in the Eliteserien have seen 3 goals or more scored.

And with the added incentive of needing to keep pace with the early league leaders, Molde, we can expect Lillestrom to come out on the front foot here.

Lillestrom have lost just once on their travels so far this season which came in the form of a 3-0 loss at Stromsgodset.

But the visitors have also picked up three wins while six of Lillestrom’s seven away games have also resulted in over 2.5 goals.

Both teams look likely to score here and the 2.5 goals margin should be beaten here.
