May 3rd features a match where Molde will play host to Aalesund in a meeting of these two Eliteserien teams. In their last match, 15th placed Molde, recorded a 1-2 loss against Lillestrøm. Kristoffer Tønnessen struck first for Lillestrøm in the 5th minute, then in the 35th minute, Martin Linnes sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Emil Breivik. Molde looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 2 of their last 10, while in their last match, 16th placed Aalesund, recorded a 0-3 loss against Bodø / Glimt. A. Erlykke scored the first goal for Bodø / Glimt in the 6th minute, then Faris Pemi Moumbagna added another in the 17th minute on a feed from Anders Konradsen At the end of 90 a dissapointed Aalesund couldn’t manage to score, and Bodø / Glimt took the shutout win. Aalesund looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season Molde won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Alexander Munksgaard and Markus Karlsbakk are the top scorers for Aalesund in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Molde is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Kristian Eriksen and Magnus Eikrem each having 2 goals in their last 5.
