Lillestrøm are on a good run, which they hope they can maintain when they play host to another high-flying side, Molde. Going to this game, Lillestrøm, who have played 10 games, are seventh in the Eliteserien standings with 17 points, 12 behind league leaders Molde, who have played three games more than them. Lillestrøm started the season in poor fashion, losing three of their opening four matches, but they’ve stabilized in recent times and go to this game unbeaten in their last six matches. They’ve also improved in attack, netting two goals in four of their last five matches, while they have just one clean sheet in the process. Both teams have scored in seven of Lillestrøm’s 10 league matches and they’ve won each of their last four home league games.

Molde are the leading scorers in the league with 33 goals but they aren’t the best defensively. Recently, they suffered a shock 1-0 loss to Sarpsborg but gave a great response in their latest game, thumping Odd 5-0. They go to this game in really good form, having won six of their last seven matches and with three clean sheets in the last four matches. Six clean sheets in their 13 matches is a run they’ll want to change and it will call for a lot of improvement defensively. In six of the said 13 matches, both sides have scored, while the loss to Sarpsborg is one of the two matches this season that Molde failed to score in. They’ve scored two or more goals in 11 of their 13 matches and have lost two.
