In this week 6 match on the 16th of May, Viking plays host to Jerv in a clash of these two mismatched Eliteserien teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 11 degrees, a perfect day for football. 1st placed Viking is fresh off their 0-0 scoreless draw against Strømsgodset. Viking had 12 on net, and Strømsgodset had 5, but no one could beat the goalie, and the game ended in a 0-0 draw,. With 19 points in their last 10 matches Viking should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, Jerv recorded a 1-1 draw against Tromsø. Mathias Haarup struck first for Jerv in the 30th minute, then in the 33rd minute, August Mikkelsen sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Moses Ebiye squeezing out at least the one point for Tromsø. Jerv is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season.
Willis Alves Furtado and Doguhan Simsir are the top scorers for Jerv in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal.. Veton Berisha has been on a hot streak lately. In the last 5 games, the attacker has scored five goals for Viking.
