Tippeligaen:

Stabæk – Rosenborg

Stabæk without a win after 2 rounds, Rosenborg hasn’t lost so far.
Stabæk lost their first homegame against Brann. Was a pretty even game, where they had problems with creating chances. Attackers Gunnarsson and Nannskog didn’t got much space. Played another even game away against Vålerenga. Nannskog scored his first goal this season, and continues as he did last year. Vålerenga had a shot in the bar right before the end, but a draw was ok after play and chances. Defender Olsen was back against Vålerenga and Stabæk has all availabel against Rosenborg. Left wing Alanzinho played well in last game, and created much on the wing, has pace and dribbels well.
Stabæks last 6 games:
15.4 Vålerenga (Away) 1-1
10.4 Brann (Home) 0-1
5.11 HamKam (A) 5-1
29.10 Molde (H) 8-0
22.10 Vålerenga (A) 1-3
15.10 Start (H) 2-2

Rosenborg got draw against Viking in their first away game in a even game. Won against Tromsø, where they were down 1-3 after 40 minutes. Scored the winning goal in 92.min. Both teams created many chances and it could easily become more goals there. Young Konan and Traore was good on the wings and Iversen wins most of the balls that comes to his head. Rosenborg will miss defender Riseth, Basma and Lago, all missed the game against Tromsø too. Not many problems in Rosenborg, but the defence miss a player with pace. Could see that very well against Tromsøs Ademulo, who made problems for Koppinen and Kvarme. So there are the chances to Stabæk, and they have pace in Nannskog, Gunnarsson and Alanzinho. Attacker Iversen scored 2 against Tromsø and is topscorer.
Rosenborgs last 6 games:
15.4 Tromsø (H) 4-3
9.4 Viking (A) 1-1
10.12 OB Odense (H) 0-1
7.12 Brann (A) 2-3
3.12 Helsingborg (H) 0-1
26.11 OB Odense (A) 3-5

H2H on Nadderud: 4-5-2 17-14
H2H total: 7-6-10 34-45

Last meetings on Nadderud:
4.5.06 Stabæk – Rosenborg 1-1
14.6.04 Stabæk – Rosenborg 1-1
22.6.03 Stabæk – Rosenborg 2-2
9.6.02 Stabæk – Rosenborg 0-0
24.6.01 Stabæk – Rosenborg 3-0
8.4.00 Stabæk – Rosenborg 0-2

Pretty even when these teams meet. Both teams to score is the best bet.


Lyn – Odd

Lyn with a win at home, and lost away. Odd still without points.
Lyn won their first game against Sandefjord with 3-0. Had good control in that game, but Sandefjord created some good chances. The away game against Fredrikstad started bad, with a red card to Brink after 5 minutes. (he is suspended here) Lost 1-3 to Fredrikstad, but missed on some good chances. But the lose was nothing to say about, Fredrikstad was the best team after all. Important defender Berntsen is still injuryed, while defender Brink is suspended. Attacker MacAllister is back from suspension, but will start on the bench. Attacker Edu missed the Fredrikstad game, and will miss this game too.
Lyns last 6 games:
14.4 Fredrikstad (A) 1-3
9.4 Sandefjord (H) 3-0
5.11 Lillestrøm (A) 0-2
29.10 Fredrikstad (H) 1-2
22.10 Viking (A) 2-1
15.10 Brann (H) 2-1

Odd with two lost. A well deserved lost in first away game against Strømsgodset(1-2). Played well against Lillestrøm, was dangerous on counter-attacks and had 2 shoots in the bar. But after all its was ok that they lost that game too. They have to do better, espacilly at homeground. Some problems in the sqaud. Goalkeeper Jarstein was so angry at half time against Lillstrøm, that he refused to play in 2.half. He has apologyed his behavior,and he will probably start for Odd. Midfield Svindal Larsen missed the game against Lillestrøm and are doubtful to this weekend to. Midfield Dale will miss this game.
Odds last 6 games:
15.4 Lillestrøm (H) 0-1
9.4 Strømsgodset (A) 1-2
11.11 Bryne (A) 7-1
8.11 Bryne (H) 3-0
5.11 Start (A) 1-2
29.10 Lillestrøm (H) 0-3

H2H at Ullevål: 6-4-5 29-21
H2H total: 11-11-9 54-40

Last meetings on Ullevål:

1.8.04 Lyn – Odd 2-2
22.6.03 Lyn – Odd 0-2
16.6.02 Lyn – Odd 3-0

Lyn are favorites here, but Odd have pretty good record on Ullevål lately. HW



Tromsø – Start

Tromsø with 3 points, meets Start that has 4 points.
Tromsø won a even game home against Vålerenga 1-0. In last game they lost 3-4 to Rosenborg. Was leading 3-1, but conceeded a goal in the 92.min. Was a open game with chances to both teams. Important midfield Bernier, scored two goals against Rosenborg, has refused to sign a new contract and might leave the club to the summer. Attacker Rushfeld is ready after injury, and will probably start against Start. Goalkeeper Borch and defender Pedersen are both long time injuryed, and hasn’t played any games yet. Defender Håkonsen is suspended.
Tromsøs last 6 games:
15.4 Rosenborg (A) 3-4
9.4 Vålerenga (H) 1-0
5.11 Vålerenga (A) 1-3
29.10 Start (H) 1-0
23.10 Lillestrøm (A) 2-1
15.10 Fredrikstad (H) 3-1

Start won their first away game, against poor Aalesund. Managed only a draw against Viking in their first game at their new stadium. Was a pretty poor game the first 70 min, but the last 20 was chances to both teams. Ended 1-1. Attacker Bärlin missed a penalty in the first half. Start had some players injuryed in this weekend and defenders Borgersen, Engedal, midfielders Hardarsson, Fevang and attackers Matihsen, Valencia and Lie are all out. Not all of them are regulars, but Borgersen, Valencia and Hardarsson would be in the start lineup. Starts last 6 games:
15.4 Viking (H) 1-1
9.4 Aalesund (A) 4-2
5.11 Odd (H) 2-1
29.10 Tromsø (A) 0-1
22.10 Sandefjord (H) 0-2
15.10 Stabæk (A) 2-2

H2H on Alfheim: 6-5-2 22-14
H2H total: 10-12-6 45-37

Last meetings on Alfheim:
29.10.06 Tromsø – Start 1-0
2.10.05 Tromsø – Start 3-1
1.10.00 Tromsø – Start 3-2
1.5.96 Tromsø – Start 3-0
14.5.95 Tromsø – Start 1-4

Tromsø are favorites at home, played well latly. HW worth a little try.



Viking – Sandefjord

Viking has 2 points, while Sandefjord has 3 points.
Viking has drawn against Rosenborg and Start so far. Both games was even, and with a little lucky they could have won both. Attacker Ijeh and Sigurdsson was good against Rosenborg, but didn’t created much against Start. Ijeh has after the Start game claimed that Hæstad on Start call him something not to nice, and both has to explain them self to the NFF (Norways F.A board). Ijeh might start on the bench, if so Pimpong will probably start. Midfield Gabrielsen and Gaarde is still out with injury and defender Ross has joined them.
Vikings last 6 games:
15.4 Start (A) 1-1
9.4 Rosenborg (H) 1-1
5.11 Brann (H) 5-0
29.10 Rosenborg (A) 1-4
22.10 Lyn (H) 1-2
15.10 Odd (A) 1-0

Sandefjord lost to Lyn in their first away game, but had deseved a goal after good chances was missed. In the weekend they won against Aalesund. They was the best team in 2.half, but got some problems with the set-pieces to Aalesund in the first half. Won 3-0 after very nice goals by Thorsen and Isaksen. The last goal was a freekick by Knarvik, that changed direction in the wall. Ødegård, Mjelde and Johanessen is still out with injury. Thorsen is doubtful after a hit in his leg.
Sandefjords last 6 games:
15.4 Aalesund (H) 3-0
9.4 Lyn (A) 0-3
12.11 Fredrikstad (Cupfinal) 0-3
5.11 Molde (A) 3-2
29.10 Vålerenga (H) 0-2
22.10 Start (A) 2-0

H2H on Stavanger Stadion: 1-0-0 1-0
H2H total: 1-0-1 3-3

Viking should be favorites at home, but odds is low.


Aalesund – Fredrikstad

Aalesund with 2 straight looses, while Fredrikstad has 3 points.
Aalesund lost their first home game against Start with 2-4. Was leading 2-1, but after a red card they totaly falled apart. Played well in first half against Sandefjord away, but in second half they got more problems and lost 0-3. In their offence they need that tall Aarøy is doing a good job, but if a team managed to stop him, Aalesund gets problems and their miss attacker Dede. Have been one of their problems so far. Also their defence aint the best, and are doing many mistakes. Jääger, Nylund, Werni, Larsen, Dede and Bahoken was out in the last weekend. Only Bahoken is back to this weekend from suspension.
Aalesund last 6 games:
15.4 Sandefjord (A) 0-3
9.4 Start (H) 2-4
5.11 Pors (A) 5-1
29.10 Kongsvinger (H) 3-3
22.10 Bodø/Glimt (A) 2-0
15.10 Bryne (H) 0-2

Fredrikstad was without a chance against Lillestrøm in their first awaygame and lost 0-3. But home against Lyn they started a little lucky when Lyns Brink got a red card after just 5 minutes. Fredrikstad won 3-1, but Lyn was closer the points then the results tell. Important
Kvisvik and attacker West was back from injury against Lyn and that help FFK a lot. Fredrikstad will miss defender Piroja, and Bertelsen who is out for a long time, and haven’t played any games yet. Fredrikstad managed only 11 away win last year, and lost 8 of 13 games. Has to improve on awayfield, and are trying with a new formation this year in 4-4-2.
Fredrikstads last 6 games:
14.4 Lyn (H) 3-1
9.4 Lillestrøm (A) 0-3
12.11 Sandefjord (Cupfinal) 3-0
5.11 Rosenborg (H) 1-1
29.10 Lyn (A) 2-1
22.10 Odd (H) 2-1

H2H on Color Line Stadion: 1-0-0 1-0
H2H total: 2-0-0 5-1

Results:
25.9.05 Fredrikstad – Aalesund 1-4
29.5.05 Aalesund – Fredrikstad 1-0

Important game for both teams. Aalesund needs points, while Fredrikstad normally looses away. Think it could get some goals here. Over 2.5 for me.



Brann – Vålerenga

Big game between west and east in Norway. Always a lot of things that happend in these games. Brann with 2 victories, while Vålerenga has only 1 point.
Brann played well away against Stabæk and won the even game 1-0. Had the biggest chances in 2.half, and managed to stop Stabæks star attackers. Played home against Strømsgodset, where they won 3-1. Was a pretty even game the first hour, but after they took the lead 2-1, they had full control on Strømsgodset. Still not very good football Brann plays, so not in their best form yet. Only midfield Bakke is out, so coach Mjelde can choose from a big sqaud. Attacker Sæternes is topscorer in Tippeligaen with 3 goals so far. Its also all the chances he has got, so 3 goals on 3 chances! Solli was very good on the right wing against Strømsgodset, and are begining to show some of the potencial he has and when he played on the nationalteam.
Brann last 6 games:
16.4 Strømsgodset (H) 3-1
10.4 Stabæk (A) 1-0
1.3 Brøndby (A) 0-3
25.2 OB Odense (A) 2-3
10.12 Helsingborg (A) 2-2
7.12 Rosenborg (H) 3-2

Vålerenga lost away to Tromsø in a even game. Manadge a draw against Stabæk in last game, also that was a even game. Both the central midfielders Holm and Grindheim is doubtful to this game. So there can be some changes in the midfield for Vålerenga. No other players are injuryed. Vålerenga hasn’t played to well in the first two games, but had some chances against Stabæk to score more, but the bar and a good goalkeeper destroyed that. Fredheim Holm scored a beautiful goal against Stabæk.
Vålerenga last 6 games:
15.4 Stabæk (H) 1-1
9.4 Tromsø (A) 0-1
1.3 Helsingborg (H) 1-2
10.12 Elfsborg (A) 3-2
7.12 Viborg (A) 2-2
3.12 AIK (H) 4-2

H2H on Brann Stadion: 16-9-9 57-38
H2H total: 27-16-27 112-108

Latest results at Brann Stadion
30.4.06 Brann – Vålerenga 3-1
30.7.05 Brann – Vålerenga 1-2
17.3.05 Brann – Vålerenga 2-2
2.8.04 Brann – Vålerenga 1-1
1.11.03 Brann – Vålerenga 3-1
1.5.02 Brann – Vålerenga 0-4

Two teams that hasn’t got their potencial out yet. Better stay away.


Strømsgodset – Lillestrøm

Monday game where Strømsgodset that has 3 points and the leader Lillestrøm with 6 points. This is a derby game in the east of Norway.
Strømsgodset played well in first homegame against Odd, won 2-1. Lost away to Brann 1-3, but took the lead there and the game was even to around 60 minutes. But after conceeding 1-2, Strømsgodset didnt show much. Sørum and Driscol is still injuryed. Midfield Leonhardsen missed the game against Brann and are doubtful to this game. Defender Deila got a hit in his head but i guess he is ready for this game. Strømsgodset showed against Brann that they can play well away, but it is at home they need to take most of their points. Has in Ohr, Andersson, Nyan and George players with pace and technique.
Strømsgodsets last 6 games:
16.4 Brann (A) 1-3
9.4 Odd (H) 2-1
5.11 LøvHam (H) 2-2
29.10 Sparta (A) 7-3
22.10 Moss (H) 1-0
15.10 Sogndal (A) 1-1

Lillestrøm are leading the tabel after 2 rounds. Won home against Fredrikstad without many problems. Away against Odd they contiuned to play good and won 1-0. Attacker Occean has scored 2 goals so far. Captain Kippe got read card against Odd and will miss this game.
Midfield Brenne is doubtful, but should be ready to the game. He played his first game for Lillestrøm against Odd, but went out after just 30 minutes with injury. Has a big sqaud, but will miss Kippe. Has only lost 1 of the last 14 games they have played.
Lillestrøm last 6 games:
15.4 Odd (A) 1-0
9.4 Fredrikstad (H) 3-0
4.3 OB Odense (A) 1-1
10.12 Brøndby (A) 1-1
7.12 Brøndby (H) 1-1
3.12 København (A) 1-0

H2H on Marienlyst: 2-1-7 14-20
H2H total: 6-4-13 33-52

Last results:
22.4.01 Strømsgodset – Lillestrøm 1-2
19.6.99 Strømsgodset – Lillestrøm 1-1
7.5.98 Strømsgodset – Lillestrøm 2-3
27.7.97 Strømsgodset – Lillestrøm 4-2
21.4.96 Strømsgodset – Lillestrøm 1-3

Hard game to see any good bets. Both teams could score, so over might be the best, but not to many goals when Lillestrøms plays away.

[E_S]

Adeccoligaen

HamKam - Bodø/Glimt
HamKam with two wins so far. Still missing Coorman, Bjerke and Sørum. A little lucky away win in last game. Had no problems with Skeid at home.
Bodø has four points so far. Got a draw away against Hønefoss. But in last game the had no problems with Mandalskameratene and won 8-1.
Two teams that attacks. Should come some goals here, and over 2.5 for me.

Hønefoss - Haugesund
Hønefoss has 4 points after 0-0 home against Bodø and a 2-1 win away to Tromsdalen. Strong at home, and should end over the middel.
Haugesund has played two good games, and has 3 points so far. Lost to Moss away, 1-2. Won with the same result against Sparta at home.
Hønefoss are favorites and odds around 2.00 is worth a try.

Mandalskameratene - Tromsdalen
MK started well with a 2-0 home against Kongsvinger. Got trashed in last game with 1-8 to Bodø. No important missings, and should be ready to show a better game then against Bodø.
Tromsdalen with a lucky away win against Sparta in first round. Lost home to Hønefoss. Gets normally big problems when they play away.
MK will be better this game, HW.

Moss - Bryne
Two pretty even teams, and there is hard to find a good bet here. No bet.

Notodden - LøvHam
Notodden are small favorites but hasnt played to well in the beginning. LøvHam has 4 points, but a normally pretty weak away. Important attacker Låstad is doubtful, and if he misses this game HW is the best option.

Skeid - Kongsvinger
Skeid with 1 point so far, which they got home against Notodden. Pretty young team and will be very unstabel. Has to take points at home.
Kongsvinger played well in last game but lost 0-1 to HamKam. If they continue to play as they did in last game, they could win here.
Small stakes on away win!

Sogndal - Raufoss
Sogndal with two lost games. Not that start they wanted. Need to do better, but has played against two of the better teams.
Raufoss with two draws against some of the worst teams in this divison. Will be a hard game for Raufoss and Sogndal should win, maybe with a handicap win too.

Sparta - Molde
Sparta without points so far, but played well in first homegame. Will miss defender Johansen with suspension.
Molded with 2 wins and are favorites here but odds aint to good, so stay away.

Country: Norway
Match: Stabaek v Rosenborg BK
Date: 21/4/07
Time: 19:00 cet
Reccomended Bet: Rosenborg BK -0.25 AH @ 2.05 Pinnacle 3/10

Hardly an original or surprising bet from myself, but these odds are too meaty to ignore. OK Stabaek will always have the threat of someone like Nannskog etc but I think RBK's class can tell here. One thing we do know is that they have potential to score many goals, and fight back as they showed against Tromso. My only worry is past H2H's here. RBK have not won in their last 5 visits to this stadium, and indeed the last 4 between the clubs here have ended draws. Hopefully RKB can deliver the goods, but even a draw isn't a disaster result for me as I play the -0.25 at generous odds.

shocked and stunned RBK lost

Stabæk was best tonight and deserved a win. So they continues they good run home against Rosenborg. Atleast both teams scored
Will be a better day tomorrow for you Meatman!

ah yes nice prediction ES

yeh hopefully will be a good day for me on Sunday - I have bad feleings for this week though

I feel Tromso and Brann could be good bets maybe Lyn

Im considering LSK and Aalesund as well, but I shall probably only be selective

[E_S]

Not a very easy round.
Tromsø are strong home and should win against Start.
Branns pitch aint very good, so Brann has told they will play a lot of long balls, which they very rarly do. So maybe a low scoreing game. 1-0?
Lyn should win, but Odd has done it very well away against Lyn. But im still on homewin!
Aalesund need points, and Fredrikstad was last year one of the weakest teams away. Could get some goals here to, so HW and over for me.
Lillestrøm played well, but important captain and defender Kippe is out. Also Brenne will miss the monday game. I rather see the game then bet on it.
Vikings odds against Sandefjord is low. Maybe +1AH on Sandefjord is worth a try, but i'll skip it.

[meatman]

Aalesund is a dodgy bet, but Fredrikstad are an awful away force normally. Theres goals in this game but I think the hosts can just get the victory they need.

Tromso have started the season positively and Start looked slightly dodgy. 1-0 at home to Valerenga on the opening day I think they can at least draw this one ce soir.

Brann v Valerenga is a big game, but I think home advantage might be crucial. Brann have started the season well with 2 consecutive wins. Win this tonight and they would move 5 clear of RBK, a great early advantage. I think they will draw at worst.

GL all today in Norway

[meatman]

2 half losses for me today so far

come on Brann give me a win now boys

[meatman]

4-1

an excellent end to the evening

also well done today to you ES - nice call on the Aalesund over and Lyn win

Match: Stromsgodset v Lillestrom
Date: 23/4/07
Time: 19:00 cet
Reccomended Bet: Lillestrom Draw No Bet @ 1.60 Betsafe 3/10

This looks like a very safe bet IMO, I cant see LSK losing to newly promoted Stromsgodset. The newcomers have started ok but were outplayed by Brann last week. They have home advantage today but LSK should be good enough to get the win. They have started the season well with 2/2 wins and will want to make it 3 consecutive tonight. Might not be completely convincing but by any margin I dont mind.

[E_S]

Thanks meatman!
Tromsø should had won. Was the best team against Start and had a lot of chances to score. Starts goal was a mistake by the goalkeeper in Tromsø.
Many strange situations in Aalesund - Fredrikstad game. Both coaches was extremly unhappy with the ref, that did many mistakes, but the biggest one was disqualify a Aalesund goal. So it should have been a hw in the end...
Brann was lucky with their start. Scored on their two first chances, while Vålerenga missed alone with the goalkeeper and hit the bar, all happend in the 10 first minutes.

[Robijas]

Hello, i think that Lillestrom will be happy with draw here..Lillestrom is more quality team and x2 seems as a nice bet for combo...

[G:G]

Strömsgodset - Lilleström

Over 2.5 goals @ 1.78
Two attacking minded teams with good scoring abilities and record meet here, also Lilleström without defender Kippe. I admit that I don't have a great insight to this leauge, but I have noticed that there's been quite a lot of goals in the first rounds, also that Strömsgodset looks to be a team that emphasize on attacking.
Brann - Strömsgodset 3-1
Strömsgodset - Odd Grenland 2-1
