Lillestrom Team Overview
Lillestrøm are sixth in the Eliteserien with 32 points from 21 matches. The weak point of Hans Erik Ødegaard's side is their attack: 28 goals, fewer than any other team in the top six. September has reflected that. In the Europa League, Lillestrøm began with a home defeat to Portuguese side Torrense. They then lost 0-3 in Stavanger to league leaders Viking. Even their place in the league phase was hard-earned - they only got past Albanian side Egnatia in extra time. The cup was more straightforward: three goals without reply away at Aurskog-Finstadbru.

Corners Prediction
Lillestrøm have a consistent pattern when it comes to corners: in 6 of their last 7 matches, the combined total has been at least 11. That run is likely to continue in Sandvika. The bet is Total Corners - Over 10.5.
The risky bet
Bærum haven't lost heavily in a long time: they have gone 33 matches in a row without being beaten by more than three goals. At home, their attack adds another reason for optimism. That makes for a bold option: Bærum won't lose by more than one goal. The bet is Bærum - Handicap +1.5.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
There is a three-division gap in class between these sides. But Bærum rarely suffer heavy defeats at home - in 15 of their last 16 home matches they have not lost by more than two goals. Their attack helps: they have scored in 25 of their last 26 home matches. Lillestrøm are not in the habit of big wins either, having scored no more than three goals in 18 consecutive matches. If Bærum find the net even once, three goals from the visitors still would not produce a margin of more than two. We expect Lillestrøm to go through, but there will be no rout in Sandvika. The bet is Bærum with Handicap +2.5. Predicted score: 1-2.
