The Eliteserien season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Molde and Brann promises to be an interesting one.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Molde and Brann.

6-6-17 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Brann when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 29 matches are 29-61 (scored/conceded).
