Double chance : Viking or draw

Viking are going through a rough patch right now. They have lost most of their recent games, including some heavy defeats, and they are not in good shape at all. Lillestrom, on the other hand, have been doing better lately with a few wins, so they come into this match feeling more confident.

When these two teams meet, the games often have plenty of goals, and Viking have had the upper hand in most of their recent meetings. Even though Viking are struggling, playing at home and their strong record against Lillestrom should help them. This one looks like it could go either way, but Viking are more likely to get a win or at least a draw, so expect a close match with a few goals.
