Football Bet of the Day: Molde to hang Valerenga out to dry

Molde v Valerenga
Sunday 19:00

Houston Dynamo 3 Minnesota United 0 means it was a near miss in the MLS last night. We're hoping to get back on target in Norway this evening.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Molde have beaten Valerenga at home in four of the last five Eliteserien seasons. Valerenga haven't managed a single goal in any of those games. The last two runnings of the fixture both finished 4-0 to the hosts and we fancy the Baby Faced Assassin's men to take all three points again this evening.

Since Solskjaer returned to the club, Molde are a very solid W24-D6-L9 at Aker Stadium. This season they've won 6/8 on home turf, including each of the last three (by an aggregate score of 8-1). Currently, they are fourth in the 16-team league.

Ronny Deila's Valerenga are eighth in the table, but have failed to score in any of their last three away matches. In fact, since the ex-Celtic man took charge, the Pride of Oslo have not had much to be proud of outside the capital. They are W6-D4-L13 since the start of last season. Last term, they lost 5/7 winless games at top-half finishers. This season, they are W0-D2-L3 against teams currently above them in the table. Today, we're right behind their opponents.
