After seeing our winning run end at four following the surprising lack of goals at Villa Park on Saturday, Sunday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me head to the Norwegian Eliteserien, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ Viking vs Sarpsborg 08
🇳🇴 Eliteserien
⏰ Sunday 4 May, 16:00
Eliteserien leaders Viking play host to sixth-placed Sarpsborg on Sunday afternoon in Stavanger in a fixture that appeals to me for goals.
Viking have fired in a league-high 21 goals across their opening six Eliteserien fixtures this season, with 15 (71%) of them coming in front of their supporters.
The Dark Blues have found the back of the net in each of their opening six league matches – remarkably scoring three or more in each of their last five – and will look to continue their extraordinary goal-scoring form at the start of the season against a Sarpsborg defence that is without a clean sheet in any of their last three Eliteserien matches, shipping five goals.
Christian Michelsen’s visitors have fired in eight goals across their opening four matches in the Norwegian top flight this season, with five (63%) of them coming on their travels.
Sarpsborg have found the back of the net in each of their opening four league clashes this term – notching on multiple occasions in three (75%) of them – and will be confident of troubling a Viking backline that has yet to keep a clean sheet this season, shipping 12 goals.
Bet of the Day
Viking’s opening six Eliteserien fixtures this season have averaged a staggering 5.50 goals per game, with Over 3.5 Goals landing in each of them – and given the same has paid out in each of Sarpsborg’s last two – I’m happy to have a punt on these two attack-minded sides playing out a high-scoring clash in Stavanger on Sunday.
- Over 3.5 Goals
- Pays 21/20 (BoyleSports)
