It's not happening yet for HamKam on their Eliteserien travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different?

This match can not go any worse than the last one, the home defeat versus Tromsø with 1-2 on the scoreboard. Late heartbreak for HamKam in the Tromsø match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime. Melgalvis got a match rating of 7.31 in that game, top player of the team. Melgalvis scored one goal.

A 0-4 loss hosting Molde before that.
