Nest-Sotra to take care of leaky Honefoss

International Football Tips

Football – Norway – Adeccoligaen

Monday 21st July 2014 – Kickoff: 1900hrs

Hosts Nest-Sotra will be looking to continue their solid home form when they take on visitors Honefoss at their Agotnes Stadion on Monday night.

Despite having won just once in their last five in the Adeccoligaen, three of these five matches were away from home where they lost 1-2 at Kristiansund, lost 1-3 at bryne and grabbed a point at Alta in a 2-2 draw in their last match, but as mentioned, their home form has been pretty good.

Nest-Sotra currently occupy a mid-table position and this has been due to their overall home record of  4-1-2  13/9 with wins over Ham-Kam 3-1, Tromsdalen 4-0, Tromso 2-1 and a 2-0 win over Strommen in their last home match.

Forward Skalevik (9 goals) has scored first goal on 6 occasions so far this season and looks a good anytime goalscorer bet for Nest-Sotra here tonight having scored 5 goals in his last 6 matches.

 

Visitors Honefoss have registered just three league wins from their last eleven matches which have all incidentally been at their AKA Arena ground – a 2-0 win over Ham-Kam, 4-0 over Tromsdalen and 2-1 against Ranheim.

However, their poor away form has resulted in them currently being situated third from bottom in the Adeccoligaen in the relegation zone and they face a tough assignment tonight at Nest-Sotra.

Honefoss have recorded just one away win all season which was a 1-0 win at second from bottom club Ull/Kisa, but have since suffered heavy defeats at Kristiansund 1-4, 0-5 at Fredrikstad and a 0-6 trouncing at the hands of Strommen in their last away match.

They’ve struggled to score goals while conceding way too many at the back which is reflected in their overall away record of  1-1-5  5/21 along with failing to score in their last four away matches on the trot.

 

I have to give the nod to the hosts here tonight as their solid form on home turf should take care of the points against a poor travelling Honefoss side who are leaking goals at the back particularly on their travels. Nest-Sotra to win this perhaps 2-0.
