Strømsgodset - Brann predictions

The visitors understand the difficulty of the task at hand. To beat Strømsgodset on their own turf would be a major feat, and it is always a tough challenge.

If everything goes according to plan and Brann put their best foot forward we expect to see an away win in this match.

Strømsgodset last played an away game at Odd last round, which ended up being quite a disaster. They were behind throughout the game’s runtime, ultimately recording a 2:0 loss despite initially optimistic predictions.

The away team are coming on the back of an HT/FT draw in the last round’s away game at Sarpsborg 08. They were probably hoping for more considering the 1.86 odds on their victory but had to settle for just a single point for the tally.

The first step Strømsgodset need to make to improve is to shore up their defences. With more than 5 goals conceded over the last 3 matches, it seems to be the main aspect of play holding them back.

The visitors’ main concern will be cutting down the concession rate. They conceded more than 5 times in their latest 3 matches, and bucking the trend will be a great step in the right direction.

Despite the favourable betting odds, Brann have a painful defeat on record from the previous time they played against Strømsgodset. Although this match was played last season, the large goal difference left quite a poor impression.

With no injuries reported on either side of the pitch, both coaches have their full rosters at their disposal. As such, the odds remain firmly in the visitors’ favour.

And Under 2.5 Goals bet may not be the obvious choice, but that may be exactly what makes it good. The Pncl sportsbook is pricing this fixture at 2.49, which offers substantial betting value. It’s not without risks, of course, but it’s statistically an excellent choice.
