Tobias Gourlay's in Norway again for what he hopes will be a tight Monday-night game at Arasen Stadium

Lillestrom v Stromsgodset
Monday 17:00

Haugesund scored a 90th-minute consolation that brought down yesterday's bet. They lost 2-1 to Stabaek, and we lost with them, but we're sticking in Norway for one more day.

That's because there's an even more generous price on Under 2.5 Goals in today's Eliteserien game between 14th-placed Lillestrom and 11th-placed Stromsgodset.

Lillestrom have delivered Under 2.5 Goals in 15/24 home games under Arne Erlandsen, including 5/6 this season. There have been a total of just five goals spread across the last five of those matches and, with both teams scoring in only 9/24, we don't expect a goal fest today.

Since the start of last season, visiting Stromsgodset have seen 13/22 away games finish with Under 2.5 Goals. They've failed to score themselves on their last two visits to Arasen Stadium and also on three of their last five away trips anywhere. We're delighted to accept the generous odds-against price on Under 2.5 Goals for this afternoon's encounter.
