Lillestrom vs Sarpsborg Predictions

• Lillestrom are unbeaten in eight Eliteserien starts (W5, D3).
• The hosts have won four of their six games at Arasen Stadion this term.
• Sarpsborg have lost their last two away trips and three of their last four (W1).

Lillestrom look the real deal

Lillestrom have made an outstanding return to the Norwegian top flight so far and they’re backed to extend their unbeaten run to nine with another victory against Sarpsborg this Wednesday.

Geir Bakke’s side began the campaign poorly with consecutive defeats, but they soon adjusted to Eliteserien demands following their promotion last term. The Oslo outfit are sixth and just two points behind the European places with two games in hand after five wins and three draws from their last eight, including a 2-3 success at Stabaek last week.

The Canaries also held leaders Molde to a 1-1 draw here on their penultimate start, a result which indicates they’re they could be around to stay.

On top of their lengthy unbeaten run, Lillestrom have amassed 13 points from their six outings at Arasen Stadion and a home win looks the only result this week against a Sarpsborg side who have lost their last two away trips and three of their last four on the road.

The visitors have struck in five from six on their travels though, and that’s factored into our 3-1 correct score prediction.
