After making it five consecutive winners in China on Sunday, Wednesday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me head to the Norwegian second tier, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ Mjondalen vs Asane
🇳🇴 OBOS-ligaen
⏰ Wednesday 30 July, 17:00
Mjondalen will look to give their survival hopes a boost on Wednesday night as they welcome 12th-placed Asane to the Consto Arena in a fixture that appeals to me for goals.
Kevin Nicol’s hosts have scored 15 goals across their opening 14 OBOS-ligaen fixtures this season, with eight (53%) of them coming on home soil.
Mjondalen have found the back of the net in each of their previous six league outings – with only runaway league leaders Lillestrom preventing them from scoring at home this season – and they will look to breach an Asane defence that has kept a solitary clean sheet in the league this term, shipping 2+ goals in five of their last six away from home.
Asane have scored 18 goals across their opening 14 contests in the Norwegian second tier this campaign, with nine (50%) of them coming on their travels.
Ex-Leeds United midfielder, Eirik Bakke, has seen his find the back of the net in each of their last five and eight of their past 10 league outings – notching on multiple occasions in four of their previous five – and will be confident of breaching a Mjondalen defence that has recorded a solitary shutout this season, conceding a league-high 34 goals.
Bet of the Day
Mjondalen’s opening 14 matches in the Norwegian second tier this season have averaged 3.50 goals per game, with Over 2.5 Goals banking in nine (64%) of them – including in five of their last six on home soil (2-3, 1-4, 0-6, 2-2, 1-4 & 1-1).
Asane’s opening 14 clashes in the OBOS-ligaen this campaign have averaged 2.79 goals per game, with six of their previous seven seeing Over 2.5 Goals land (2-1, 0-1, 2-1, 2-2, 2-1, 1-2 & 2-2).
Given both teams' recent improvement in front of goal, coupled with their defensive vulnerabilities, I’m expecting to see a minimum of three goals in Eastern Norway on Wednesday.
- Over 2.5 Goals
- Pays 17/20 (Bet365/William Hill)
