In this 6th week match, on Friday May 12th, Odd hosts Lillestrøm at Skagerak Arena in a clash of the Eliteserien. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 15 degrees, a perfect day for football. Odd is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against Tromsø. Bang-Kittilsen struck first for Odd in the 80th minute, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, Tromsø couldn’t muster any offence and Odd ran away with the shutout win. Odd is looking for direction having 2 win and 1 losses in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 4th placed Lillestrøm, recorded a 1-2 loss against Bodø / Glimt. Faris Pemi Moumbagna struck first for Bodø / Glimt in the 52nd minute on a feed from Amahl Pellegrino, then in the 60th minute, Lars Ranger sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Akor Adams. Lillestrøm is looking for direction having earned 14 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win each.
Lillestrøm is fortunate enough to have Akor Adams in top form. In the last five matches the attacker has scored 5 goals. Mikael Ingebrigtsen and Jorgensen are the top scorers for Odd in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
