Strømsgodset - Brann predictions

A home win would be a big surprise in this match. Strømsgodset are the underdogs here and it will be a huge surprise if they end up grabbing a win here.

We are likely going to see Brann triumph this Sunday, though Strømsgodset do have a fighting chance. Maybe the home field advantage will be enough to spur them into a surprise draw or victory, though it’s not a probable outcome.

Strømsgodset will be full of confidence heading into the Sunday clash. They recorded a compelling Rosenborg away victory last time out and will be keen to keep the momentum going. They were given 3.95 betting odds to claim three points but it’s fair to say not many people expected them to do so as impressively as they did.

Brann had a lot going for them as they entered their previous Eliteserien bout, with both home-field advantage and considerably shorter odds to win than their opponents. As such, the 4:2 HT/FT victory wasn’t much of a surprise, but it will be interesting to see if their form keeps up while playing away.

Records show that the last two times Strømsgodset played as the home team, the matches ended with 1 or fewer goals between them and the opposition. This marks them as interesting for bets like Under 5 Goals – especially now, when they’re playing at Marienlyst Stadion.

Looking over the visitors and their recent history, we noticed they’ve scored more than 5 goals in their previous 3 appearances. This signals a consistent ability to score in most matchups, which is good news for their supporters.

We can rely on the teams’ previous meeting as a point of reference. Earlier in the season, Brann won a Eliteserien match against Strømsgodset in a relatively close game. With that in mind, the 1.68 odds on the visitors winning make a lot of sense.

Both teams will have a complete lineup for an exciting showdown, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 2.70. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
