Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) At first look Brann -1AH, Stabæk -1AH and Rosenborg looks good. Will be back later with previews.

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) What about Lillestrom playing at Aalesund? Seems like a clear away win... ?

[E_S]

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Lillestrøm are favorites and could be a good bet, but odds under 2.00 is not very tasty. Thinking a little on a handicap win, but haven't decided on that yet.

[meatman]

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Lillestrom are a tempter for me, but I will probably bet over in that game as well - always loads of goals with Aalesund RBK tempt me again as do Brann, Stabek and Tromso Viking odds look too short, Stromsgodset - Lyn maybe drawish

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Strømsgodset – Lyn Strømsgodset has 5 points, while Lyn has 6 points. Strømsgodset played well in first homegame against Odd, won 2-1. Continued that against Lillestrøm, where they got a point after getting a early red card. Take most of their points at home, and need to conyinue their good start at Marienlyst. Was lucky that they got a point against Vålerenga, and goalkeeper Johnsen played very well. Sørum and Driscol is still injuryed. Huusko and Deila went out in last game and are both doubtful. Ohr is back from suspension. Winsnes (Aab, Denmark) is ready for the club from 1.7. Strømsgodsets last 6 games: 28.4 Vålerenga (A) 0-0 23.4 Lillestrøm (H) 1-1 16.4 Brann (A) 1-3 9.4 Odd (H) 2-1 5.11 LøvHam (H) 2-2 29.10 Sparta (A) 7-3 Lyn has won their two first home games but gets problems away. The game against Fredrikstad started bad with a red card after just 5 minutes. The game against Lillestrøm was not that bad, and they showed some good football, but couldn’t complain on 0 points. Plays much better at home. Important defender Berntsen was back in last game. Stensås went out with a injury in last game and are doubtful. Attacker Edu is still out after missing the last games. Has done it pretty good away last seasons. Lyns last 6 games: 30.4 Lillestrøm (A) 1-3 22.4 Odd (H) 3-1 14.4 Fredrikstad (A) 1-3 9.4 Sandefjord (H) 3-0 5.11 Lillestrøm (A) 0-2 29.10 Fredrikstad (H) 1-2 H2H on Marienlyst Stadion 5-5-2 34-14 H2H total 11-7-6 63-34 Last meetings on Marienlyst: 2001-07-08 Strømsgodset - Lyn 3 - 3 2000-05-07 Strømsgodset - Lyn 2 - 2 1997-08-31 Strømsgodset - Lyn 6 - 1 1995-09-24 Strømsgodset - Lyn 3 - 0 1991-05-16 Strømsgodset - Lyn 0 - 1 1973-06-03 Strømsgodset - Lyn 2 - 0 A open game this. Could get some goals here. Over is the best bet. Tromsø – Fredrikstad Tromsø with 4 points, while Fredrikstad has 7 points. Tromsø has 4 points after two home games. Has played well in both and should had won both games. Was a pretty even game against Vålerenga, while against Start they created many good chances. Gets normally more problems when they play away. Goalkeeper Borch and defenders Nordnes and Pedersen are long time injuryed, and hasn’t played any games yet. Attackers Rushfeld and Årst are always dangerous on top. Tromsøs last 6 games: 29.4 Sandefjord (A) 1-2 22.4 Start (H) 1-1 15.4 Rosenborg (A) 3-4 9.4 Vålerenga (H) 1-0 5.11 Vålerenga (A) 1-3 29.10 Start (H) 1-0 Fredrikstad has started as they did last year, plays well at home, and very rarly takes points away. Got a point against Aalesund in last away game (3-3), and there could easily be more goals in that game. Played very good against Viking and could have won with more goals. Young Elyounussi played a very good game, and scored a beatiful goal. Fredrikstad will miss Bertelsen who is out for a long time, and haven’t played any games yet. Also Piroja and Berg is injuryed. Have to play better away, and have some players that can creates problems for other teams. Fredrikstads last 6 games: 29.4 Viking (H) 2-0 22.4 Aalesund (A) 3-3 14.4 Lyn (H) 3-1 9.4 Lillestrøm (A) 0-3 12.11 Sandefjord (Cupfinal) 3-0 5.11 Rosenborg (H) 1-1 H2H on Alfheim Stadion 3-0-0 8-3 H2H total 4-0-3 14-13 All meetings on Alfheim: 2006-10-15 Tromsø - Fredrikstad 3 - 1 2005-09-18 Tromsø - Fredrikstad 2 - 0 2004-06-20 Tromsø - Fredrikstad 3 - 2 Tromsø are favorites, but wont surprise me if Fredrikstad got a point. Viking – Odd Both Viking and Odd has 3 points after 4 rounds. Viking started with 3 draws against Sandefjord, Rosenborg and Start, before Fredrikstad won easily 2-0. Played well in the three first games, but against Fredrikstad they where terrible, espacilly in first half. Coach Røsler was very unhappy with the performance, and called all in for a extra training on Monday (normally gets free the day after a game). Viking has problem with scoring and has scored only 2 goals so far. Eiriksson (DF) and Gaarde(M) is still out with injury. Svenning (DF) is unsure, while Ross (DF) and Pimpong (F) is back. Will be interesting to see how the players reaction after last game. Vikings last 6 games: 29.4 Fredrikstad (A) 0-2 22.4 Sandefjord (H) 0-0 15.4 Start (A) 1-1 9.4 Rosenborg (H) 1-1 5.11 Brann (H) 5-0 29.10 Rosenborg (A) 1-4 Odd finally managed to get a win after starting with three losses. A well deserved lost in first away game against Strømsgodset(1-2), but played a little better against Lyn (1-3) where 2 late goals destroyed. Played well against Aalesund, and created many good chances. Important Svindal Larsen played well in last game, and Odd needs that he continues that. Midfield Dale will miss this game. Important defender Nilsson is doubtful. Attacker Pospech scored his first goal in last game, since he came from Czech. Also young Gulsvik(17years) scored against Aalesund and has two goals. Odd has played better lately, and are showing a little of their potencial. Normally not the best away team. Odds last 6 games: 29.4 Aalesund (H) 3-0 22.4 Lyn (A) 1-3 15.4 Lillestrøm (H) 0-1 9.4 Strømsgodset (A) 1-2 11.11 Bryne (A) 7-1 8.11 Bryne (H) 3-0 H2H on Viking Stadion 10-3-5 26-22 H2H total 18-8-10 49-42 Last meetings on Viking Stadion: 2006-05-28 Viking - Odd 1 - 0 2005-05-22 Viking - Odd 1 - 0 2004-05-16 Viking - Odd 2 - 2 2003-09-29 Viking - Odd 0 - 1 2002-10-07 Viking - Odd 0 - 3 2001-09-23 Viking - Odd 2 - 1 (NM Cupen) 2001-05-16 Viking - Odd 1 - 0 2000-08-13 Viking - Odd 2 - 1 Open game here. Viking with a disaster game last weekend, while Odd finally won. Vålerenga – Rosenborg Vålerenga with 2 points, meets Rosenborg with 7 points. Vålerenga has only 2 points so far after 2 draws at home. First game was a even game against Stabæk, while against Strømsgodset they should got all points. Created many good chances but a good goalkeeper in Strømsgodset stoped all their chances. Has lost both away games. Midfield Holm has missed the last games, and also Grindheim(M) was out. Used then R.Johnsen on central midfield, but he got injuryed and are out to this game. No other players are injuryed. Problems with scoring goals so far, used four attackers against Strømsgodset from start. (Fellah, Fredheim Holm, Berre and Roberts) Vålerenga last 6 games: 28.4 Strømsgodset (H) 0-0 22.4 Brann (A) 1-4 15.4 Stabæk (H) 1-1 9.4 Tromsø (A) 0-1 1.3 Helsingborg (H) 1-2 10.12 Elfsborg (A) 3-2 Rosenborg played very well against Brann in last game, and the victory could have been bigger. Has only one point away after two games, and haven’t played to well away. Lost away to Stabæk in last game where they took the lead but could managed to stop Gunnarsson. Rosenborg will miss defender Riseth and Lago. Storflor is doubtful. Basma is back in training after a injury. Rosenborgs last 6 games: 29.4 Brann (H) 3-0 21.4 Stabæk (A) 1-2 15.4 Tromsø (H) 4-3 9.4 Viking (A) 1-1 10.12 OB Odense (H) 0-1 7.12 Brann (A) 2-3 H2H on Ullevål Stadion 9-10-11 48-63 H2H total 20-14-27 94-129 Last meetings on Ullevål: 2006-04-23 Vålerenga - Rosenborg 0 - 0 2005-10-23 Vålerenga - Rosenborg 0 - 2 2004-11-20 Vålerenga - Rosenborg 3 - 2 (Royal League) 2004-05-19 Vålerenga - Rosenborg 2 - 2 2003-07-27 Vålerenga - Rosenborg 0 - 1 2002-05-25 Vålerenga - Rosenborg 0 - 0 2000-10-01 Vålerenga - Rosenborg 2 - 2 Pretty even games when these two meets, but Rosenborg has showed best form so far. Rosenborg -0,25AH is the best bet. Aalesund – Lillestrøm Aalesund has 1 point, while Lillestrøm has 10 points. Aalesund with 1 point so far. Has lost 3 of their 4 games, and managed only to take a point against Fredrikstad in last homegame. Has conceeded 13 goals in 4 games, and need to do much better there. But its postive that they have scored 5 goals in their first two home games. This will be the hardest game so far this season. Jääger, Werni, Larsen and Dede is still out. Are looking after new players. Aalesund last 6 games: 29.4 Odd (A) 0-3 22.4 Fredrikstad (H) 3-3 15.4 Sandefjord (A) 0-3 9.4 Start (H) 2-4 5.11 Pors (A) 5-1 29.10 Kongsvinger (H) 3-3 Lillestrøm still without a loss after 4 rounds. Has won 3 of their 4 games. Has played best home, with creating many chances. A little more problem when they play away. Won a even game against Odd and got only 1 point against Strømsgodset, where they plyed most of the game with one man more. Captain Kippe is back from suspension, while Mouelhi is suspended. Midfield Brenne is doubtful after a new hit against Strømsgodset and missed the Lyn game. Riise might miss this game, since his girlfriend are expecting a baby this day. Midfield Arnasson is injuryed. Has played well so far, and creates a lot of chances. Strong defence, and the best team on set-piece in Tippeligaen. Lillestrøm last 6 games: 30.4 Lyn (H) 3-1 23.4 Strømsgodset (A) 1-1 15.4 Odd (A) 1-0 9.4 Fredrikstad (H) 3-0 4.3 OB Odense (A) 1-1 10.12 Brøndby (A) 1-1 H2H on Color Line Stadion 2-0-0 3-1 H2H total 2-1-1 4-5 All meetings: 2005-10-02 Aalesund - Lillestrøm 1 - 0 2005-06-12 Lillestrøm - Aalesund 3 - 0 2003-09-28 Aalesund - Lillestrøm 2 - 1 2003-06-01 Lillestrøm - Aalesund 1 – 1 Lillestrøm are favorites here. Might try some on -1AH on Lillestrøm. Brann – Start Brann with 9 points, while Start has 6. Brann won their three first games, before a terribel game against Rosenborg ended with a 0-3 loss. Didnt creat much against Rosenborg, and that game was a big step in wrong direction from the three first games. Normally strong home, and are just waiting to start this game, so that they can forget last game. Scored 7 goals in the two first games, and attackers Sæternes and Helstad wants more. Midfield Bakke is in training again, but its a little early for him yet. Solli and Huseklepp is doubtful, but propably will both be in the sqaud. Attacker Sæternes is topscorer in Tippeligaen with 4 goals so far and Helstad has 3 goals. Brann last 6 games: 29.4 Rosenborg (A) 0-3 22.4 Vålerenga (H) 4-1 16.4 Strømsgodset (H) 3-1 10.4 Stabæk (A) 1-0 1.3 Brøndby (A) 0-3 25.2 OB Odense (A) 2-3 Start still without a loss after 4 rounds. Last three games has ended with 1-1. Against Stabæk they were lucky, and scored after 95 minutes. Played terribel, and should have been down with 2 or 3 goals before they managed to socre. Last away game was pretty poor, and Start was lucky to grab one point there. Strømstad went out in 1.half against Stabæk, might miss this game. Borgersen (DF), Engedal(DF), Hardarsson(M), Mathisen(A) and Midtun Lie (A) is still injuryed. But not to long when some of there are back, Engedal, Hardarsson and Midtun Lie are all back in training. Attacker Nielsen got a injury on todays training, and is very doubtful. Starts last 6 games: 29.4 Stabæk (H) 1-1 22.4 Tromsø (A) 1-1 15.4 Viking (H) 1-1 9.4 Aalesund (A) 4-2 5.11 Odd (H) 2-1 29.10 Tromsø (A) 0-1 H2H on Brann Stadion 15-4-7 44-32 H2H total 21-10-21 71-71 Last meetings on Brann Stadion: 2006-08-06 Brann - Start 0 - 1 2005-09-19 Brann - Start 1 - 0 2002-09-11 Brann - Start 3 - 1 2000-09-20 Brann - Start 2 - 1 1996-08-25 Brann - Start 7 - 1 1995-06-25 Brann - Start 0 - 4 1994-07-31 Brann - Start 1 – 0 Brann are favorites and -1AH should be good, over is worth a try too. Stabæk – Sandefjord Stabæk with 5 points, Sandefjord has 7 points. Stabæk has played very well so far. Was very unlucky against Start, and got only one point. Again their two attackers Gunnarsson and Nannskoog was important. Nannskoog was scored against Start, and now Gunnarsson and Nannskoog has scored all Stabæks goals. Started with a loss in first homegame against Brann in a even game. Played much better against Rosenborg, and won 2-1. Are strong home. Important defender Kjølø is out with injury. Many good offence players in Alanzinho, Nannskog, Gunnarsson and Tchoyi. Strong defence, but has conceeded a goal in every game so far Stabæks last 6 games: 29.4 Start (A) 1-1 21.4 Rosenborg (H) 2-1 15.4 Vålerenga (A) 1-1 10.4 Brann (H) 0-1 5.11 HamKam (A) 5-1 29.10 Molde (H) 8-0 Sandefjord continues to win at home, but gets bigger problems away. Started with a loss to Lyn in their first game. Managed to take a lucky point away against Viking in last game, where their two central defenders played a very good game. Havent scored on their two first awaygames. Ødegård and Mjelde still out with injury. Thorsen is still doubtful after a hit in his leg. Sandefjords last 6 games: 29.4 Tromsø (H) 2-1 22.4 Viking (A) 0-0 15.4 Aalesund (H) 3-0 9.4 Lyn (A) 0-3 12.11 Fredrikstad (Cupfinal) 0-3 5.11 Molde (A) 3-2 H2H on Nadderud Stadion 1-1-0 3-1 H2H total 2-1-2 9-9 All meetings: 2006-07-30 Sandefjord - Stabæk 3 - 1 2006-04-09 Stabæk - Sandefjord 0 - 0 2005-10-16 Stabæk - Sandefjord 3 - 1 2005-06-26 Sandefjord - Stabæk 2 - 1 2004-08-15 Sandefjord - Stabæk 3 - 4 (NM Cupen) Stabæk should win this game and i try some on -1AH.

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Notodden – Sogndal Notodden with 4 points on the 2 homegames against pretty poor teams. Lost their first game last weekend. Played pretty well so far and won 3-0 in last homegame. Sogndal has won their two latest games, and has 6 points. Not played to well so far, and late goals has given them victory in latest games. Has played 4 even games. Still some missings but no important ones. Important Flo is getting better and better for each game. Missings Notodden: no injurys. Missings Sogndal: Kjetil Holvik(D), Erland Nygård Kvalheim(D), Alexander Breidvik(A) and Per-Egil Flo(A, 1game). Bet: No bet. HamKam – Haugesund HamKam with 9 points. Has scored 13 goals on their 4 games. Lost last homegame against Bodø/Glimt(2-3). Has a strong offence, but has conceeded 6 goals in last two games. Haugesund has 7 points, but only taken 1 point away. Has meet two strong teams away in Moss and Hønefoss, nut this will be the hardest game so far. Will miss important defender Castro. Andreassen is back after suspension. Played well so far, created many chances but need to score more goals. Missings HamKam: Vegard Bjerke(D) and Joachim Sørum(D). Missings Haugesund: Carlos Castro(D, 4games). Bet: HamKam is strong home and should win. -1AH is the best bet. Hønefoss – Bryne Hønefoss with 6 points, and still haven’t lost. Has only 2 draws at home against Bodø/Glimt and Haugesund. Has won last 3 games home against Bryne. Bryne plays well at home, won both games. Away they have played pretty bad and lost both. Has a good sqaud and should be in the top 5. Missings Hønefoss: Janne Räsänen(D). Kenneth Di Vita Jensen(A) is doubtful. Missings Bryne: Nuno Marques(GK, 2games) and Antonio Aceitôn De Haro(D, 1game). Bet: So far Hønefoss has done it best, but Bryne has potencial. Draw?? Kongsvinger – Bodø/Glimt Kongsvinger with 6 points after they have won the two latest games. Played well and created many chances so far. Could easily had some more points. Won 3-0 against Bodø/Glimt last season. Bodø/Glimt has 10 points and has scored 15 goals in their last 3 games. Has 4 points on their two away games. No new missings. Wingers Olsen and Hamoud is quick and make many problems for the other teams. Missings Kongsvinger: Herman Odden(D, 1game), Ørjan Berg Hansen(M, 2games), Ragnar G. Koffeld(A) and Johan Nås(A, 2games). Missings Bodø/Glimt: Paul Londak(GK, 2games) and Stig Johansen(A). Bet: Open game between two teams that like to attack. I try some on over3.5 Mandalskameratene – Molde MK has lost their last three games, and conceeded 13 goals. Ertzeid is missing. Played poor in last home game, and need to do better. Molde has 10 points so far. Haven’t played to well, but has won both away games. Is one of the best teams in Adeccoligaen, and are hunting for promotion. Missings Mandalskameratene: Kim Tangedal(M). Kenneth Knudsen(A, 4games) is doubtful. Esben Ertzeid(M, 4games 1goal) is suspended. Missings Molde: Sandro Grande(M) and Madiou Konate(A). Bet: Molde is better, but haven’t played to well so far. Odds not great but AW. Moss – LøvHam Moss has won both home games. Playes very good, but gets more problems when they play away. Should win games like this if they want to fight in the top. LøvHam with 4 points, but haven’t scored in their last 3 games. Works hard but needs that attacker Låstad plays well. Has managed to get draw here in their last three meetings. Missings Moss: Erik Holtan(GK). Amin Askar(D, 4games) is doubtful. Mahmoud El Haj(A, 2games) is suspended. Missings LøvHam: Samir Sari(A). Eirik Havnvik(D) is doubtful. Bet: Moss should win this, -1AH or -1,5. Skeid – Tromsdalen Skeid with 1 point so far. Have problems in defence, with conceeding 13 goals so far. Fights well but anything else then relegation is a big surprise. Tromsdalen normally good at home, but so far they have won away and lost home. Has 6 points and scored 6 goals in their last 2 games. Have good H2H against Skeid, only lost 1 of their last 7 meetings here. Missings Skeid: Bjarte Kringlemoen(GK) and Simen Røine Johansen(M). Espen Grina(A, 2games) and Mohammed Abdellaoue(A, 2games) is doubtful. Missings Tromsdalen: Are Johannessen(M) and Alexander Samuelsen(A). Bet: Tromsdalen has done best so far. Odds around 2.90 for AW is worth a try. Sparta – Raufoss Sparta has lost all 4 games, but have played well and deserves more then they have got. If they continues to play as they have done, the points will come soon. Raufoss won their first game last weekend and has 5 points so far. Played well in last game and was close to take in their last away game. Missings Sparta: No injurys. Missings Raufoss: Robert Skjølås(M) and Pål Arne Jensen(M). Bet: Sparta is small favorites.

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Brann @ 1.70 This is a interesting match with some different angles to it: Bounce back for Brann after the bad result and performance vs Rosenborg? Time for Start to end their 1-1 streak and get a well deserved first loss? yes to both imo, Brann are strong at home, eager to get the Rosenborg match out of their minds, and Start can't get another point from luck in injury time I hope. I was thinking about -1 for Brann, but I'll settle for home win @ 1.70.

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Country: Norway Match: Brann v Start Date: 5/5/07 Time: 19:00 cet Reccomended Bet: Brann -1 AH @ 2.17 Pinnacle 3/10 Brann will win this game if they play as they have done for most of this season. I saw Start last week and they were awful, incredibly lucky to draw against Stabaek. Im not impressed with them much and I'm hoping Brann can claim a convincing win today and I bet -1 AH. It's a close one as to go for straight win or not, but I fancy a bigger payout with better odds. GL :ok

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Norway Tipp Soccer - Stromsgodset/Lyn - total Over 2½ (-141) for the regulation time held on May 6 at 11:00am [pending] Not a fan of the juice but I like the combination, Stromgodset playing forward as they usually do, makes for an entertaining team and always a lot of balls in the net either way.

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) not too much to add following on from ES' excellent previews once again I really like the look of Stabaek today, they impressed me last week and Sandefjord are never much good away from home. The home attack should be too strong IMO. Tromso I cant see losing today which is why I like the -0.25 here. Fredrikstad another team who often struggle on the road, not looked impressive this season either. RBK I like as well, they are the best in Norway and hardly ever lose against Valerenga. The home team havent looked good to me this season and are still winless. They are struggling in many departments and I think RBK can take advantage. The -0.25 AH offers some draw cover. GL all today :ok

[G:G]

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) despite the Brann debacle yesterday I'll also try VÃ¥lerenga today. VÃ¥lerenga (-0.25) @ 1.98 (Bet365) VÃ¥lerenga have started this season in a bad way, two draws at home and two losses away, with only two goals scored and six goals against. They seem to lack attacking power and are not the force they were last season, at least not atm. Rosenborg have won both home matches, but lost to Stabaek and got 1-1 away to Viking, I'd say a good enough start. Last match Rosenborg played well and got a 3-0 win vs Brann, and I'm hoping the great result have boosted Rosenborg's morals enough to win this one too, I really like this odds for Rosenborg hopefully on the way to good form vs VÃ¥lerenga in trouble.

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Tromso do the business, but fcuking hell Stabaek and RBK were disasters :cry

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Seen the highlights and cant complain for once!! RBK absolutely outplayed and should've lost 4 or 5 nil really. Valerenga seriously impressive but I've no idea where they produced this performance from, they had been shit so far this year :eek Stabaek also very disappointing and probably deserved to lose, rather than draw. Sandefjord had many chances before they took the lead. Stabaek only really played properly in the last 10 mins where they got an equaliser. Again I'm amazed at Sandefjord who I rate as porobably the 2nd weakest team in this division, certainly away from home. Really good performance here :loon

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Country: Norway Match: Aalesund v Lillestrom Date: 7/5/07 Time: 19:00 cet Reccomended Bets: Lillestrom straight win @ 2.0 Worldbet 2/10 & Over 2.75 goals @ 1.95 Pinnacle 4/10 This is a match between bottom of the table Aalesund and Lillestrom, who would go back to the top if they won the match. This is definitely a game that I’m looking forward to greatly and should be pretty exciting. Sadly I don’t think they will survive, but Aalesund are a team that I really like this season. Already they have been involved in some great games this campaign, especially at home. On the opening day they lost 2-4 against Start and then drew 3-3 against Fredrikstad. This team cant defend at all much, but they can certainly attack. In front of their own fans they know no other way than to go for goals and shouldn’t try and be defensive today. It wont be easy to breaqk down a tough LSK defence, but I have been pretty impressed with Aalesund in the final third of the pitch, they can get on the scoresheet. But ultimately I think it might be in vain because Lillestrom have the ability and weapons to take advantage of that dodgy defence. They arte still unbeaten this season although haven’t always been convincing away from home. Against Odd they were a bit dodgy. and then also failed to beat 10 man Stromsgodset. But this is a quality outfit and they have a great opportunity to capitalise on Brann, RBK mistakes this weekend. They will have to adapt to life on an artificial pitch, but they managed it ok against Odd. They are a better team overall and have to be favourites to win. My main bet for the game will be over 2.75 goals as I really do expect plenty of excitement. Lillestrom’s defence is pretty decent but I think Aalesund are good enough to score a goal. The visitors should outscore them and take victory IMO. We are due an away win this match day and I think this looks like a good chance of one. Odds of 2.0 look quite good, although I only stake 2/10 on this outcome, compared to 4/10 on the over bet. GL all who bet :ok

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) I am nearly convinced that overs are correct here...however, if you go back and check Lillestrom's stats over the last couple of seasons, they play a huge number of low-scoring games on the road. Now, against the Aalesund defense and strategy this may not apply, but it really seems as if Lillestrom's tactics are extremely different when playing away. Many, many 1-0 and 1-1 results there. Last year 46% of away games got to 3, the year before 38%. So far this year, two of two unders, and their last h2h (in 2005) finished 1-0 to Lillestrom. The question always is in such a match, which philosophy will hold sway? If Aalesund is forced to play Lillestrom's patient tactics on away, we could well be looking at a 0-1 HT score...and then who knows? BOL with it, still thinking about whether to jump in. A

Sport	Football (Norway)
Event	Aalesunds - Lillestrom
Selection	2
Strength	10/10
Date	07/05/2007
Bookmaker/Price	Stan James @ 1.91 (Back)
Reasoning	With 10 points out of their first 4 matches Lillestrom are poised to have a very good season. Their opponents today are yet to win a match and if they can keep their current playing form the league leaders should win this one. At 1.95 an away win has good value given the opposite status of these teams. More tips on soccer-punter.com

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) Norway Eleteserien: Aalesund (+0.5:0) Lillestrom 2 @ 1.88 @ bet365 10 points

In this season Tippalegaen in Norway, Aalesund are unbeaten in their four games up to now with three defeats and one draw and occupy the last seat of the table while Lillestrom won three and drew one and are topping the table. The gap is huge between these teams and this is more clearly show by the goal tallies of Aalesund 5 scored and 13 conceded (-8) while Lillestrom scored 8 against 2 (+6).

I believe Lillestrom much too strong currently than Aalesund an unless a surprise they should be the winners here. Away win with the -0.5 handicap @ 1.88 @ bet365

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) :loon LOL! I am watching the Aalesund Liilestrom game and one of the Aalesund players was throwing in...

Re: Norway - Tippeligaen (5-7 May 07) all too easy is this, a village team could defend better than Aalesund lol they are hopeless :lol just 1 more goal please for a maximum payout :ok
