Molde hosts Stromsgodset in round 10 of the Norwegian Eliteserien. The match will be played on Wednesday, June 30th at Aker Stadion (Molde)
Molde is rightfully at the top of the standings. The team gained four consecutive victories and suffered only one defeat in the current championship. And then it happened in the match against one of the leaders, Valerenga. Molde rarely experiences problems with such teams as Stromsgodset. The blues easily dealt with Sandefjord, Sarpsborg, and Stabaek. All these teams have about the same level as Stromsgodset. And they are all in the second half of the standings. And Molde continued its successful streak with an away victory over Bodo/Glimt, which has the same number of points but played one match more. In the last four games, Molde scored 11 goals, which is quite a solid indicator. Thus, the hosts have no particular problems with creating chances and converting them. Moreover, they are reliable in defense. And the home stands will only help Molde, because the team is very strong on its pitch. Since November 26, 2020, the Blues have suffered only one defeat to the above-mentioned Valerenga. Teams like Stromsgodset have almost nothing to hope for in Molde.

Stromsgodset is an ordinary middle peasant in the Norwegian championship. It doesn’t lay any serious claims. Of course, Molde has to deal with them. Their results do not contradict this — two wins in the last seven games. The visitors won against Sandefjord (one of the candidates for relegation) and defeated Rosenborg. On the one hand, the second opponent is a grandee of local football, but on the other hand, its current state didn’t make it a clear favorite in that game. Moreover, it was away. And Stromsgodset snatched the victory only in the last minutes. In general, there are no such results that would inspire confidence in the visitors of the upcoming game. And if you look at how easily Bodo/Glimt dealt with Stromsgodset, you may think that Molde can arrange the same thumping. In other words, nothing could prevent Molde from showing about the same result.
I think Stromsgodset has practically no chances to score points in the upcoming game. The White-Blues play badly away. They didn’t gain a single victory in the last five away games and suffered three consecutive defeats. The maximum they could achieve away was the draws in games against the middle peasants or outsiders. Therefore, the hosts must gain a landslide victory.
Prediction for the match: Molde to win with -1.5 handicap
