Most bookies see Viking as the favourites in this matchup, though it’s important to know things can go either way. Their victory is currently priced at 2.00, indicating that the hosts have a fighting chance.

Most bookies expected Strømsgodset to win their previous Eliteserien engagement, though few saw the decisive 3:1 score coming. That said, their victory was far from perfect – records show that they were actually behind at halftime and only built up the considerable lead in the second half.

Viking mildly embarrassed themselves on their home turf in the previous round. They suffered a 3:4 defeat at the hands of Tromsø – a weaker team relatively speaking – and their confidence must have taken a hit.

Whenever met on their home pitch, the hosts tend to perform at a high level. They scored more than 5 times in their latest 3 home games alone, marking this match as interesting for BTTS and Over 5 Goals markets.

A quick look at the visiting team’s recent history tells us a lot about their weaknesses. Specifically, we’re talking about the fact that they’ve allowed more than 5 goals over their 3 most recent Eliteserien outings.

No suspensions or injuries means both teams will have their full lineups available for a highly anticipated matchup.

For better or worse, the Under 3.5 Goals is possible the best course of action for this match. It’s not exactly an exciting offer and the returns can’t be called amazing, but the value is strong enough to warrant a quick punt.
