HamKam vs Aalesund Predictions

• Both meetings between the two sides last season finished goalless
• Aalesund have failed to score in a league-high seven games
• HamKam’s two wins this season both featured clean sheets

Basement battle unlikely to be pretty

The bottom two in the Eliteserien collide on Friday evening in a fixture that offers HamKam and Aalesund a chance to temporarily escape the relegation zone.

The two clubs are locked together on seven points with identical records after 12 games, recording two wins, a draw and nine losses so far.

Aalesund do come into the fixture off the back of a big win over Rosenborg, but their away form has been dreadful this term and history suggests the trip to Hamar will be one for the pursuits.

Aalesund short on goals and quality

Both fixtures between the HamKam and Aalesund last season finished goalless and this latest encounter is predicted to be light on goals.

Although over 2.5 goals has cashed regularly in both team’s games this season, it’s their opponents that have been doing the heavy lifting in those scenarios.

Aalesund have failed to score in seven of their 12 league games, netting one away goal all season, while HamKam only recently hit double figures for goals scored.

Under 2.5 goals is the standout option, while a small wager on a 1-0 HamKam victory also appeals.

HamKam’s two wins this season have both come at home while only one side has kept more home clean sheets in the Norweigan top flight this term.
