Molde vs Viking

Monday, Molde FK receives Viking FK’s visit to a match that counts for the new Eliteserien round. The match will be arbitrated by Kristoffer Hagenes and an unbalanced one is announced.  Last time the two teams met two years ago, Molde was forced to move 3-2.

Molde: The form of the moment, the latest results, the statistics

In the last two seasons, under the command of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Molde has always finished second in the domestic championship. The current one started with Erling Moe on the technical bench, after Solskjaer left for Manchester United. After the first nine stages, the situation is not an excellent one, but it is a promising start. He is currently ranked second with 19 points, at a three-point difference, occupying the first place, Odd. The previous stage had a difficult move to Kristiansund. Although by the 33rd minute led by 2-0, the hosts returned the fate of the game and were forced 3-2. On their own they do much better. This season he played four matches in front of his own fans and won all the points in the game in a definite way. In total he scored 11 goals and received only one. The young midfielder who arrived this winter at Stabaek quickly integrated and became one of the main markers.

• The probable team (4-2-3-1): Linde – Haraldseid, Bjornbak, Forren, Gabrielsen – Sjolstad, Aursnes – Hestad, Ellingsen, Omoijuanfo – Knudtzon;

Viking: Form of the moment, latest results, statistics

After just one season in the second league, Viking returned to Eliteserien and aims to save from relegation. The Bjarne Berntsen remains on the bench and will have no easy task at all. After eight matches, Viking was in sixth place with 14 points and departed eight points from the first relegable place. After four non-victory games, the previous round got all three points in play. He played on his own against Stabaek and was 3-0, but after the first 45 minutes the table was unchanged. In matches played on foreign ground they do not do as well. A month ago, on the ground of a team that struggled to avoid relegation, lost 5-2. The top scorer of the team is Kristian Thorstvedt, with four successes in the first eight games.

• The probable team (4-3-3): Austbo – Pereira, Vevatne, Salte, Bjorshol – Thorstvedt, Fridjonsson, Ibrahimaj – Tripic, Hoiland, Bytyqi;
