Week 2 brings us a match on Apr 9th where Lillestrøm hosts Jerv at Åråsen Stadion in a meeting of these two closely matched Eliteserien teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 3 degrees, which will make playing unpleasant. In their last match, Lillestrøm recorded a 2-2 draw against HamKam. Eriksen struck first for HamKam in the 11th minute, then Jonas Enkerud added another in the 21st minute on a feed from Eriksen. Lillestrøm looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 0 of their last 10, while 4th placed Jerv is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against Strømsgodset. Alves Furtado struck first for Jerv in the 69th minute on a feed from Wichmann, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster At the end of 90 a dissapointed Strømsgodset couldn’t manage to score, and Jerv took the shutout win. Jerv is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Thomas Lehne Olsen has been on a hot streak lately. In the last five games, hes scored 4 goals for Lillestrøm.
