Valerenga will look to extend their impressive winning run when they welcome HamKam to Intility Arena in the Norwegian Eliteserien. The hosts have been in excellent attacking form of late, thrashing Aalesund 6-1 before edging Brann 3-2, and they will be eager to make it three league wins on the bounce. Valerenga have been particularly strong on home soil this season, averaging 2.14 goals per game while winning 57% of their league matches in Oslo. They will, however, have to cope without suspended defenders Kolbeinn Finnsson and Ivan Nasberg. Despite those absences, the hosts possess enough firepower to trouble the visitors and are expected to take the initiative from the opening whistle.
HamKam, meanwhile, head into Thursday's clash low on confidence after suffering three consecutive league defeats, the latest being a narrow 1-0 loss to Sarpsborg 08. Their away form has been a major concern, with the visitors yet to record a single away victory this season and conceding 2.14 goals per match on the road. Defender Anton Ekeroth is suspended, further weakening a back line that has struggled throughout the campaign. Given Valerenga's recent attacking displays and HamKam's poor away record, we predict a routine home victory.
Valerenga are in fine form, while HamKam have lost three straight league matches and remain winless away from home. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (Valerenga's last two league games produced 12 goals, and HamKam concede over two goals per away match).
This Norway Eliteserien match will be played on Friday 31 July 2026 at 18:00.
