After some thinking i decided to try another bet from GET-Ligaen, and this is it. Lillehammer is in my book rated as bad team, but they made quite a few surprises this season. It was mostly unpleasent for me as i betted against them. Well, i'm going to try it once again. Today they will host Stavanger, team that was in Top3 in recent seasons, but this season they have same number of points like Lillehammer, but with two games in hand. They are on this bad position mostly because of injury crisis in which they were in the begining of the season when they made some bad results. Currently they are in best form this season and they should capitalize that against Lillehammer that has some absent players and aren't on their best currently.

Stavanger won four of their last five, losing only against Storhamar which currently leads the form table. Stavanger managed to beat teams like Frisk and Valerenga which are top duo in league and i think that it wasn't accidentally.

Lillehammer is quite a surprise as i already mentioned, but they are in downtrend, losing last two. No matter that they lost against Frisk and 'Enga two top teams (that Stavanger won in last rounds), they were in good position of wining at least against injured-troubled Valerenga in last round. They had 2:0 and it was 3:2 7' before end but they managed to lose it 3:5. Team is playing good, but they miss some depth on bench because of absent players and usually their tempo in third period is slow. For this match they will miss Hammerseng and Sjodin, Mengshoel is questionable.

Because of good odds on in-form team of Stavanger and Lillehammer recent performances i'm willing to risk medium stake on away win. Meetings this season:

2007-12-02 Stavanger 3-5 Lillehammer

2007-10-18 Lillehammer 1-2 Stavanger

Unlike for GET-Ligaen this two teams usually don't score and/or concede too much so i don't expect high scoring match. One goal could be decisive and i hope Stavanger will score that one more. ML bet on Stavanger is also recommended.
