In a weekend match on Sunday Sep 19th, in week 19, Vålerenga will play host to Molde in a meeting of these two mismatched Eliteserien teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 8 degrees, so hopefuly the match makes up for the weather. Vålerenga is fresh off their 0-3 loss against Sandefjord. William Kurtovic struck first for Sandefjord in the 43rd minute on a feed from Sander Risan Mörk, then Fredrik Jensen added another on an own goal in the 60th minute In the end, Vålerenga was frustrated by Sandefjord’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Sandefjord ended the match with the shutout victory. Vålerenga is looking for direction having 3 win and 2 losses in their last 10 matches, while molde sits at 1st place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 4-0 shutout win against Mjøndalen. Ohi Omoijuanfo struck first for Molde in the 14th minute, then Martin Ellingsen added another in the 36th minute on a penalty At the end of 90 a dissapointed Mjøndalen couldn’t manage to score, and Molde took the shutout win. With 19 points in their last 10 matches Molde should be reasonably happy with their performance.
In their last match on Thu May 27th, Vålerenga was victorious by a score of 3 to 2. Christian Dahle Borchgrevink scored the first goal for Vålerenga in the 2nd minute, but Kristoffer Haugen got the equalizer for Molde in the 39th minute , but luckily for Vålerenga it didn’t end there. They were able to keep scoring to earn themselves the victory.
Molde is fortunate enough to have Ohi Omoijuanfo in top form. In the last five matches the attacker has scored 5 goals. Vålerenga’s top weapon lately has been Tobias Christensen, who has two goals in the last five matches.
