We said: Valerenga Fotball 2-1 Sandefjord

Valerenga have been struggling massively of late at their Oslo home, but a Norwegian Cup victory over Brann earlier this month hinted that Norne's side can impress in front of their own supporters. In the Eliteserien, Sandefjord are leaking goals - which often points towards relegation - and we expect the visitors to narrowly lose out at the Intility Arena on Saturday. Read more.
