Sandnes made it to this stage after getting a 2-0 win over Levanger in the quarterfinals. Herman Kleppa scored the first goal in the 7th minute before Alwande Roaldsoy added the second goal in the 60th minute. However, they have not performed well in the league, sitting at the bottom of the Norwegian second division. They are winless in 5 of their last 6 games in all competitions.
Molde
Molde defeated Lillestrom 2-1 in the quarterfinals to make it to this stage. Ola Brynhildsen scored the first goal in the 29th minute before Alexander Rossing-Lelesiit equalised for Lillestrom. However, Frederik Ihler scored the winner in the 88th minute. Molde are third in the league and have won 6 of their last 9 games in all competitions.
Expert Betting Tips
It was surprising to see Sandnes at this stage of the competition, but this seems to be the end of the road for them. Their performance recently is nothing to show up playing against one of the best teams in Norway. So, Molde are expected to dominate this game from start to finish.
