Stabaek take on the visitors Stromsgodset in the round 12 match pf Norwegian Eliteserien. The match will be played on Monday, June 3rd at Nadderud Stadion (Bekkestua).
Stabaek are currently positioned in the middle of the Norwegian league table. They haven't won in the past three matches, but they consistently put up a fight and perform well. They drew with Rosenborg (2-2) and suffered defeats against Lillestrom (1-3) and Tromso (1-2). Earlier, they managed to defeat Valerenga at home (2-1), but lost heavily to Brann away, scoring only one goal (1-4). As you can see, Stabaek's players consistently score at least one goal per game, tallying 15 goals in 11 matches. However, their defense has conceded even more, with 19 goals against. Matches involving Stabaek are generally entertaining.

I believe that the match between the hosts and Stromsgodset will not be dull in terms of goals. Recently, Jorgen Ingebrigtsen's team had no chance against the strong Molde, but that was a cup match. However, in the league, the team from Drammen has secured two consecutive victories. First, they managed to defeat Valerenga away (1-0), and in the last round, Stromsgodset sensationally defeated Bodo/Glimt at home (2-0). In the three previous matches, they scored regardless of the match outcome: a victory against Sandefjord (1-0), a draw with Odd (1-1), and a loss to Haugesund (1-2).
I see no reason to predict the outcome of the match between two neighboring teams in the league table, especially when there is only one point separating them. However, I believe it is reasonable to expect an exchange of goals at the very least. Even mid-table teams and some underdogs in the Norwegian league like to play attacking football. Naturally, their defenses tend to struggle. Both Stabaek and Stromsgodset have consistently scored in their last five matches. Betting on Both Teams to Score has been successful in two out of the three previous head-to-head matches between these teams. The hosts have been involved in goal exchanges with their opponents for the past five consecutive rounds. I think Stabaek will score again but will also concede at least once.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score.
