On Sunday Jun 4th, in week 9, Haugesund will travel to Drammen to battle Strømsgodset in a meeting of these two closely matched Eliteserien teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 21 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. 12th placed Strømsgodset is fresh off their 1-1 draw against Odd. Milan Jevtović struck first for Odd in the 60th minute, then in the 62nd minute, Jack Ipalibo sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Marcus Mehnert earning them at least the one point. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 4 of their last 10, while haugesund is fresh off their 1-2 loss against Tromsø. Maurstad Gundersen scored the first goal for Tromsø in the 18th minute, then Bruno Leite tied it up for Haugesund in the 32nd minute. Haugesund looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 8 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win each.
Bilal Njie and Bruno Leite are the top scorers for Haugesund in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Both Jonatan Brunes and Marcus Mehnert have been the hottest scorers for Strømsgodset in the last 5 each having scored 2 goals.
