Two sides separated by four places and three points in the Norwegian second division meet this week as Stabaek play host to Bryne in the Norwegian Cup fourth round.
Stabaek have certainly made a positive impression since arriving into this division following their relegation from the top flight at the end last season. The Blues will bring an eight-game unbeaten run into this match, picking up 11 points from the 5 league games played so far, and achieved a massive 5-0 win over Kongsvinger last weekend. Having also beaten the likes of Asker, Baerum and Alta in the first three Norwegian Cup rounds played so far, Bob Bradley’s side will fancy their chances of achieving another win this week.
Bryne still have a chance of earning promotion this season, with the team sitting just two points off the top of the league. After beating Start 3-1 on match day one, the Jærens had a crisis, failing to win successive games but they have responded well. Indeed, Ole Kevin Knappen’s side boast four wins from their last five outings across all competitions and kept a clean sheet in as many games.
Stabaek vs Bryne Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
When it comes to scoring goals, Stabaek had a slow start to the campaign, scoring under 1.5 goals in each of their first two outings, but the hosts have been ruthless in the final third of late. Bob Bradley’s side boast at least two goals from each of their last six fixtures, and just one of those produced less than four goals.
Bryne are yet to concede more than a goal in a game this season, but the visitors’ record defensively against Stabaek isn’t good. Knappen’s men finished five of the last six meetings between these two sides without a clean sheet, and I fancy a similar outcome this week. Four of those games produced more than two goals.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

Stabaek team news
After the 5-star show that saw Stabaek hit Kongsvinger for five without reply last weekend, head coach Bob Bradley is expected to resist the temptation to make changes to his starting eleven.
Bassekou Diabaté has now scored 5 goals in five games with his brace last time out included and should lead the line, Thomas Roberts will be the man to watch in the middle of the park after the 22-year-old netted his first goal of the campaign against KIL.

Bryne team news
Pål Aamodt has been out since February with a cruciate ligament injury and Wednesday’s game will come too soon for the defender.
Head coach Ole Kevin Knappen is expected to make changes to the side that was on the pitch from kickoff in the defeat to Valerenga last weekend.
Sigurd Grønli, Jon-Helge Tveita and Imre Bech Hermansen are among those who could be brought into the first team after featuring only as substitutes last time out.
