In their last game, Brann was held to a 1-1 draw by Sarpsborg 08. The pride of Bergen are winless in their previous four league games. However, during the week, they recorded a 2-1 win over Go Ahead Eagles in the Conference League qualification playoffs. Brann sit third on the table with 30 points in 17 games, scoring 25 and conceding 20. They are just one point behind second-placed Viking and 7 points behind first-placed Bodo/Glimt. Svenn Crone (groin injury), Moonga Simba (unknown), and Jonas Torsvik (groin injury) are all out of this clash.

Stromsgodset — Per Kristian Bråtveit, Bent Sørmo, Gustav Valsvik, Fredrik Kristensen Dahl, Lars Christopher Vilsvik, Herman Stengel, Emmanuel Danso, Logi Tomasson, Marko Farji, Jonas Therkelsen, Marcus Mehnert.

Brann — Matias Dyngeland, Ruben Kristiansen, Fredrik Knudsen, Japhet Sery Larsen, Joachim Soltvedt, Emil Kornvig, Sakarias Opsahl, Felix Horn Myhre, Ulrik Mathisen, Bard Finne, Niklas Castro.

Despite the recent drop in the form of Brann, they still have much energy to get a win against Stromsgodset. Godset lost their last three games and have not tasted victory in their previous six games. Additionally, I expect goals from both sides of the net.
