Look at this interesting game in the Eliteserien. Rosenborg is in the 9th position after playing five games. They host Vålerenga who are placed 15th after four matches.
5-3-7 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Vålerenga when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 15 matches are 23-27 (scored/conceded).
The hosts Rosenborg saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Eliteserien. Thankfully the previous game, versus Brann, was also a home game here at Lerkendal Stadion. The away team is better rested.
Rosenborg form and stats
Rosenborg have played 3 Eliteserien games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 180 minutes without scoring a league goal. Holse was the last player to find the net.
Rosenborg's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Brann (placed 2nd). The first setback in the shape of a loss after going unbeaten through four league matches. Ingason, who usually features in attack, was the declared top player for the side in that fixture, scoring a rating of 7.34 (out of 10). Ingason hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.
A 0-0 draw away before that, with Odd the opponent.The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Rosenborg's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 5 games, won 4 matches, drawn 1 and lost 0.
Gamblers who like gambling for low-scoring games might like knowing that this team have played 5 league rounds in a row with two goals or less (under 2.5).
Rosenborg have scored {2 league goals} here from 3 matches, not a lot.
Vålerenga form and stats
Vålerenga are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Eliteserien, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).
Vålerenga's previous game was their home loss versus Lillestrøm (3-4). A huge disappointment for Vålerenga in their last match (vs Lillestrøm). Leading 3-1 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 3-4 defeat. Vålerenga were so close to getting something from the game against Lillestrøm, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal six minutes into overtime. Attacker Jatta got a player rating of 7.73 in the game. "Man of the match" Jatta scored one goal, served one assist and hit one key pass.
A 1-3 defeat away at Brann before that.Vålerenga have the goal stats of 2-3 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
