An interesting matchup here today between Nybergsund, the best 2nd division team in Norway, and Vålerenga who is having some problems in Tippeligaen.

Nybergsund are have been unbeatable this year, with 13 12-1-0 40-7 in the league so far, and 3 wins in the cup. In last round they knocked out Tippeliga team Fredrikstad 1-2.

They have a really good team and almost all the players have experience from Adeccoligaen or Tippeligaen. Next year they will play in Addecoligaen, as they simply are to good for 2nd division. Have just signed Odds forward Chris Joyce on a loan out the season.

Vålerenga have had problems in Tippeligaen this year, and are placed on 11th spot, with 14 3-5-6 11-16. Their main problem is that they don't have any scoring forwards. This have been a problem for the past years, and many attackers have tried. In the last game they tied Tromsø 2-2 after trailing 0-2. Midfielder Jalland scored both. In the cup they have won 0-3 against Toten, 2-3 against Mjøndalen and 4-1 against Mo. Vålerenga will also have some players out today. Grindheim, Jepsen, Blix, Mathisen and Johnsen are out of different reasons.

Michael Schumacher friends in Nybergsund (He trained with them when he was in his cabin in Trysil) have a good team going, but I think they will be one size smal here today. If Vålerenga can keep up the tempo in the game, I think Nybergsund will have problems as the tempo in 2.division and Tippeligaen is pretty different.

The odds on Nybergsund have been played down the last days, and I think the odds you get on Enga is starting to get interesting. You get about 1.4 - 1.5 on Enga victory and about 1.9 - 2.0 on HC-1. Bet365 have still 2.3 on HC Vålerenga, which give me a value of about 115.

Vålerenga -1 3way HC, odds 2.30 @ Bet365 5/10
