Molde, Recent FormMolde manager Erling Moe will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Sandefjord. Their share of possession in that meeting was 56%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Sandefjord, who had 16 shots on goal with 9 on target.
He has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 16 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 5 goals conceded across those matches. Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 26 games in a row.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 6 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 6 games.
Eric Kitolano will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Molde.
Valerenga, Recent FormIt's fair to say Vålerenga will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Haugesund, a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. They achieved 48% possession in that match and had 6 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Haugesund's tally of 5 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 7 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 11 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Vålerenga, Seedy Jatta will be looking to add more goals against Molde in this match.
A defeat for Vålerenga in their last match against Molde was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 4 goals.
Goals should be on the cards for Molde in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Enga in their last 10 meetings together.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Molde has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Vålerenga in 4 games.
Molde man Kristoffer Haugen will be confident about extending his scoring record against Vålerenga, having hit the netting 3 times in the last 5 times they have met in the league.
With no real injury worries, Molde manager Erling Moe will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the Vålerenga manager Dag-Eilev Fagermo ahead of this clash, with Storm Strand-Kolbjørnsen (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Fagermo a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
