After 22 consecutive seasons in the elite Norwegian league, Valerenga lost Eliteserien status. Now, they are playing in the second level of national football and should be, by far, the best team in the OBOS-Ligaen. However, Valerenga have only a 2-2-2 record after the first six rounds. In the previous game, they won 1-0 at home against Bryne. Geir Bakke's team didn't impress in that match either, but Bryne's Jacob Haahr scored an own goal, so Valerenga picked up all three points.
The 2024 season is HamKam's third consecutive in Eliteserien. They have had a terrible start to the season, with only three points from seven matches, and they could be in real danger of relegation. Last weekend, HamKam played 1-1 on the road against Kristiansund. Guests tallied xG of 1.37 in that game, while the home side had only 0.60, but still, the teams split the points.
Valerenga vs HamKam pick: Under 2.5 goals
Valerenga scored only one goal in the last two matches, while HamKam scored only three in seven Eliteserien rounds. Under 2.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.

Valerenga team news
Valerenga have a talented squad. Maybe the most interesting player in the club is midfielder Magnus Riisnaes. He is only 19, so he still doesn't start regularly, but Riisnaes has shown flashes of his talent a few times this season. Also interesting is Mees Rijks, who came from Utrecht U21 this winter. The young Dutchman has already scored two goals in three cup matches this season.

HamKam team news
HamKam have big problems with scoring goals. Most of the minutes as the attacker this season had Moses Mawa, but he scored only one goal in seven league matches. That is far from enough. If something doesn't change, HamKam will have to find a different solution on the market in the upcoming transfer window.
