Viking vs Valerenga Match Preview

Viking is ranked at 6th place with 43 points and comes in pretty good form as they are unbeaten in the last five matches having four wins and a draw. Currently, they are sitting four points behind the Europa League zone so with two games left this is a must-win for them.

With 52 goals scored so far, they have the 4th best offensive side in the league, and in the last five matches, they scored a total of 13 goals, averaging at least two goals per game. They have found the back of the net at least once in eight of the last ten matches. Their main striker Berisha scored a brace in the last game and alongside Ibrahimaj are expected to give one last push to their hopes for Europa League. Together they have scored 22 goals and provided seven assists.

Valerenga, on the other hand, is ranked at 3rd place with 51 points and also comes unbeaten in the last five matches with two wins and three draws. With two games left they need to win at least in one of them in order to secure a spot in the Europa League qualifiers next year.

They have scored 45 goals until now and in the last five duels, they have scored six goals managing to find the back of the net at least once on each occasion. The last win against Rosenborg should be a boost in their morale for this last step and despite being on the road they already proved a decent shape scoring in four of the last five games.

In conclusion, I think this match can have over 2.5 goals. Viking has got to go all-in here aiming for a win. They have nothing to lose so I expect to see some offensive football by them and goals scored. Valerenga also needs points and considering Viking does not have a very solid defense they can punish them on counters.
