Brann vs Lillestrom Match Preview

Brann is ranked at the bottom of the table at 16th place with only four points and comes after a single win a draw and three losses over the last five matches. It has been a poor season for them so far as they won only one out of ten matches played. They need to start earning points in order to climb in ranks if they want to hope in avoiding relegation this year. In the last season, it went pretty well to them as they finished in the middle of the table never really risking getting relegated.

Despite the negative results they have scored four goals in the last five matches and five of their eight total goals came while at home ground. This makes me confident they will dare more here as they are desperate for a win and will not settle for a draw. At home, they have scored in all the last five h2h games against Lillestrom.

Lillestrom, on the other hand, is ranked at 8th place with 12 points and comes after four wins and a single loss over the last five matches. It is a pretty good form considering that in the beginning they lost three of the first four duels and were trailing in the cold zone.

Their offensive side has also not been exceptional this season with nine goals in total, but they have scored seven goals in the last five matches and it seems they are slowly finding their best shape. It was a bit difficult for them considering they are a newly promoted team and the difference in the quality of players is a key factor. Their veteran striker Olsen once again is leading them with 4 goals so far and could add another one to his tally here.

In conclusion, I think this match can have over 2.5 goals. Brann has got a decent team and I think they definitely do not deserve the spot they are now. Of course, it will be a hard season ahead but I see them with enough quality to avoid direct relegation at least. Lillestrom had a slow start but they are definitely scoring goals now. There were over 2.5 goals in three of their last five h2h encounters.
