On Sunday Jun 26th, Odd and Vålerenga will play a match in Oslo in a meeting of these two evenly matched Eliteserien teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 18 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. 13th placed Vålerenga is fresh off their 2-2 draw against Aalesund. Sigurd Haugen struck first for Aalesund in the 37th minute, then Torbjorn Kallevag added another in the 67th minute on a feed from Maatta. Vålerenga is looking for direction having 3 win and 5 losses in their last 10 matches, while 12th placed Odd is fresh off their 1-2 loss against Molde. Solomon Owusu scored the first goal for Molde on an own goal in the 14th minute, then added another in the 49th minute on a feed from Eirik Haugan. Odd looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 7 of their last 10.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Vålerenga won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Both Milan Jevtović and Tobias Lauritsen have been the hottest scorers for Odd in the last five each having scored 2 goals. Leonard Žuta and Aron Dønnum are the top scorers for Vålerenga in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
