The season is still fairly new and the Eliteserien table has to be read with caution. So far Vålerenga find themselves in 6th position and Odd are placed 3rd.
Vålerenga and Odd should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Vålerenga form and stats
As mentioned below, Vålerenga are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 2 games. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Intility Arena.Vålerenga manager R. Deila and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Brann in the Eliteserien. Ahead of that match, Vålerenga won a home game hosting Tromsø (4-1).
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Vålerenga as they are travelling to their away game against Faaberg in the NM Cup. That match is three days after this one.
At Intility Arena, Vålerenga has the goal stats of 6-1 (for/against) from 2 fixtures.
Odd form and stats
The visitors settled for one point in their first away game of the season. During their previous season 15 away games resulted in 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 defeats.The supporters enjoyed Odd's previous game versus Viking, a Eliteserien 1-0 win played at home. Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against Kristiansund.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Odd manager D. Fagermo as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Storm.
It's early days yet, but Odd has scored 1 and conceded 1 goals from their travels so far (1 game).
