Vålerenga II form and stats

Vålerenga II are still undefeated on their travels in the 2. Division. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other.

Impressive finishing from B. Skaret secured the home win 5-1 against Senja in their previous game. As you can tell from the results above, Vålerenga was very dominant against Senja, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 5-1 (!) with B. Skaret providing the goals.

Preceding that game, the 2-2 draw paying a visit to Alta.

The schedule is very tough for Vålerenga II now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A 2. Division game at Brattvåg is waiting in only two days.

7 goals so far away for Vålerenga II, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 4. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head
