Lillestrom vs Viking 10.07.2022

Lillestrom have had a sizzling start to the Eliteserien this season. After 13 rounds of matches, they lead the table with 30 points, 3 clear of 2nd placed Molde. They seemed to be headed for an upset loss at basement club Kristiansund last time out, having trailed 1-0 at halftime. They however turned up the heat in the 2nd half and walked away with an easy 3-1 win to open up the cushion of the top with Molde dropping points with back-to-back draws.

Viking are not that far off. Just two places behind in third place. But they have been a walking disaster in recent weeks, failing to win any of their last 5 league games (2D, 3L). They were also losing their last game at home at Rosenborg but fought hard to earn an equaliser in the 2nd half after also training 1-0 at the break

We expect a closely fought encounter here. Although Viking have generally had the better of these head-to-head encounters, Lillestrom have been really solid in their backyard. We expect them to exert most of the pressure here as they try to protect their lead at the top. They have had at least 6 corners in 4 of their last 5 home games, all of which they won. We fancy this trend to be maintained here.
