Both participants have had plenty of rest since their last effort on the pitch. Let's trust this will be an in-your-face match!
Råde form and stats
Råde was eliminated in the 1st round last season in the NM Cup.The Råde club members got no joy from their last game, a NM Cup duel also played here at Molde kunstgress: A 0-1 defeat against Fredrikstad.
Vålerenga form and stats
Vålerenga's mission in NM Cup last season failed in the 3rd round.The visitors are W2-D1-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Eliteserien.
Vålerenga won their last game, 3-0 versus HamKam played at home. Vålerenga delivered their win in the match against HamKam already in the first half, and could slow the play down in the final 45 minutes to ensure the glorious victory. A solid performance! Midfield player Bjørdal was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.15/10. Bjørdal scored one goal, hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 59 successful passes (of 70 total).
Ahead of that match was the Eliteserien away draw versus Haugesund that ended 1-1.Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset. We checked our Tipsway database for earlier, recent games with Vålerenga given similar win odds in an away game. This check revealed 4 matches with 4 wins as expected, 0 draws and 0 surprise home wins. The favourites won 3 of these games by at least two goals.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Vålerenga manager Fagermo as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Stabæk.
Vålerenga has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 6 goals from 4 games. As opposed to that, Vålerenga have seen the ball go into their own net 5 times on the road.
