THE TEAM NEWS

BRANN

  • A shocking start to the season for Brann seemed to have ended with a victory against Stromsgodset prior to the international break. However, since the return to football, they have collected just one point in their next three matches.
  • Kare Ingebrigtsen has overseen a dire season in which they have won one and drawn one of their opening ten matches after.
  • They will come into this match without key centre-back Lars Gerson. The Luxembourg international is out with a thigh injury.

LILLESTROM

  • Lillestrom come into this on the back of three successive victories since their return from the international break.
  • That run of form has seen Geir Bakke’s side lifted into the top-half of-the-table having played just seven matches due to the Eliteserien’s staggered start to the season.
  • They will come into this match having really turned their form around built upon a tight defence in which they have conceded just nine goals.

THE PREDICTION

Lillestrom have conceded just nine goals in their seven matches whilst the home team have scored just eight in ten. Given that, Lillestrom will be confident of restricting their opposition to few chances and will fancy themselves to just about have enough due to their impressive form but they themselves have managed just nine goals scored in seven games, too. So this one could be a low-scoring away win.
