Molde recorded a 2-2 draw in their last game against Sarpsborg 08. They remain winless in their previous three games in all competitions, drawing two and losing one. They sit 4th on the table with 49 points in 28 games, scoring 62 goals and conceding 34. Meanwhile, Emil Breivik (accumulated yellow cards), I. Helstad Amundsen (accumulated yellow cards), Johan Bakke (knock injury), Markus André Kaasa (head injury), Martin Linnes (knock injury), Casper Oyvann (knee injury), Magnus Eikrem (ankle injury), Fredrik Gulbrandsen (unknown) will miss this game.

Brann have been fantastic in their recent games, winning their last 8. They defeated Lillestrom 2-1 in their previous match, with Niklas Castro scoring the winning goal in the 90+3rd minute. They sit top of the table with 58 points in 28 games, scoring 53 goals and conceding 30. However, Martin Hellan (broken foot), Svenn Crone (groin injury), Moonga Simba (unknown), and Niklas Wassberg (knee injury) are all out of this game.

Molde — Albert Posiadala, Martin Bjoernbak, Eirik Haugan, Valdemar Lund, Halldor Stenevik, Kristian Eriksen, Mats Moeller Daehli, Sondre Milian Granaas, Kristoffer Haugen, Mads Enggaard, Ola Brynhildsen.

Brann — Mathias Dyngeland, Eivind Helland, Fredrik Pallesen Knudsen, Japhet Sery Larsen, Ruben Kristiansen, Sander Erik Kartum, Emil Kornvig, Sakarias Opsahl, Ole Blomberg, Aune Selland Heggeboe, Niklas Castro.

Although none of the last ten games between these two sides ended in a draw, I believe they will likely play their first draw in 5 years. The visitors have won their last eight games, but they will find it hard to get a win over Molde, who they failed to defeat in their last two attempts. However, I expect both sides to score in this game.
