Prediction: 2-2
Valerenga
All eyes will be on Aker Stadion when Molde and Valerenga face each other in the Eliteserien round 5. Molde are on a quest to regain the domestic trophy, and their display in a 3-2 win over Rosenborg is surely giving fans a reason for optimism. Despite failing to find the net in Monday’s triumph, Ohi Omoijuanfo is likely to lead the line for the hosts, while all Ellingsen, Haralseid, and Sjolstad remain in the recovery room.
The Pride of Oslo have been struggling to find their form at the start of the season, with the team recording no more than one win in the process to date. Valerenga are determined to return to winning ways, and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Thursday’s clash. Given their attacking potential, over 2.5 goals should be considered. Teenage attacker Odin Holm is the only absentee in the away team.

Highlighted Team (Molde):
Based in Molde, Norway, Molde FK are one of the most successful Eliteserien clubs of the century. The Blues won their fourth domestic championship in 2019, with the team finishing the process 14 points clear of second-place Bodo.
However, Molde failed to defend their trophy the following season as Bodo looked unstoppable in the Norwegian top flight. Speaking of the Norwegian Cup, the Blues clinched their fourth silverware in 2014, with the team beating Odd 2-0 in the title game. The Eliteserien outfit play home games at Aker Stadion, the venue with the capacity of 11,249 spectators.
Thanks to a second-place finish in the 1998 Eliteserien campaign, Molde qualified for the Champions League for the first time ever.

Molde are well known for their blue shirts and white shorts, with the team wearing white jerseys and blue shorts when playing on the road.
