After one year in the second level of Norwegian football, Valerenga returned to Eliteserien. Although the team from Intility Arena came from OBOS-ligaen, many see them as a mid-table team. However, recent form has raised concerns, as Valerenga won only one of the last five matches. In the previous game, Geir Bakke's team lost 2-1 on the road against Tromso. The home side ended the match with xG of 2.15, while the guests had only 0.82, so it wasn't realistic for Valerenga to get anything more from that game.
Most pundits have regarded Molde as one of the strongest Norwegian teams, but 2025 was quite disappointing for the team, which had won five Eliteserien titles in the 21st century. Molde collected only 11 points in the first ten rounds and will face an uphill battle to reach the position most expected them to be in. Molde won only one of the last five matches. In the previous game, they lost 1-0 at home against Viking. Although Molde had 68% ball possession, they created only 0.35 xG and couldn't get anything from the match.
Valerenga vs Molde pick: Under 2.5 goals
Valerenga scored only three goals in the last three matches. On the other hand, Molde scored one goal more in the same span. We should expect the upcoming clash at Intility Arena to be with two or fewer goals.

Valerenga team news
Valerenga scored only 12 goals so far in the 2025 season, and it is clear that they have to improve their attacking line. In the last few days, a rumor emerged in the Norwegian media that Valerenga is interested in Rosenborg's Ole Saeter, who has come on as a substitute in most games and scored one league goal. Last season, Saeter scored ten goals in 22 Eliteserien matches.
