Lillestrøm - Sarpsborg 08 predictions

Lillestrøm are easily the favourites in the match this Sunday, but we wouldn’t call a Home Win bet at the odds of 1.86 safe, exactly. They are more likely to win than not, but Sarpsborg 08 may have a few tricks up their sleeve yet.

The visitors would need to pull off quite a stunt in order to come out victorious. They are severely outmatched in this outing – the 3.77 away win odds alone should speak volumes.

The hosts returned from their most recent Eliteserien trip with a point in their bag. Based on the betting odds available, it was always going to be a tight game and Lillestrøm can be satisfied with the fact they held level both at the halftime mark and after the full-time whistle.

Sarpsborg 08’s previous round was a home match against Brann which ended in a draw. The scores were equal at half-time as well, which was quite surprising given the 3.71 odds on a home win.

Though the 5 concessions over the past 3 away games for Lillestrøm may not directly affect this particular match, such a history may be cause for concern for their supporters.

The visiting team are doing rather well offensively – at least as far as their latest 3 matches can tell us. They’ve scored more than 5 times in total over the course of these games.

Although Lillestrøm are marked as the clear favourites in this matchup, things didn’t go well against Sarpsborg 08 last season. They lost a game with a considerable goal difference, so their supporters are hoping that they’ll manage to avoid such mishaps this Sunday.

Fortunately, both teams will have a complete lineup this Sunday, with no players out due to injury or suspension.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.50 if you use the Betway sportsbook.
