Specialist in Scandinavian & European soccer. I have been in the betting game for nearly 20 years now with a summer focus on the Norwegian & Swedish leagues. With an in-depth knowledge of the region & teams I have been involved in a specialist podcast & more for close to a decade. My favourite types of bets are attacking the goal lines and identifying the tactics & style of each team & manager who can contribute positively. Outside of betting I was once a Sunday League goalkeeper myself. But my boots are now retired and instead prefer to hit up the cricket pitch and golf course in my spare time.

Over 2.5 Goals

Anyone who watched the Club World Cup would know how watchable and exciting RB Salzburg games were. Two of their three games ended with over 2.5 goals in that competition, whilst the 0-0 v Al Hilal had a barrage of chances. Their their fixtures in the Club World Cup saw a minimum of 2.40 total xG, and the Red Bull style is often to play on the front foot. 11 out of 15 Brann games in the Eliteserien have gone over 2.5 goals this season, and they have kept only three clean sheets, overs is a good starting point on this one.

Both Teams to Score

Both teams to score also has a very good chance of landing in this game. Brann know they have to be aggressive in the home leg and can take recent comfort from the fact their last four home fixtures have resulted in four wins by a combined 12:4 scoreline. The key stat for Brann this season is just three clean sheets in 16 Eliteserien games. Eight of the last nine RB Salzburg games finished with BTTS yes in the league at the back end of last season. The style and stats points towards both teams scoring here and no clean sheet.

Over 7.5 Corners

Brann matches average 10.90 corners per game in the Eliteserien this season, with their own count at 6.70 per game, one of the most in the division. At the Club World Cup, there were at least nine corners in every RB Salzburg game, with as many as 17 in their fixture v Al Hilal. Taking over eight corners looks like a smart play.

  • Brann have won all of their last four home games.

  • All of RB Salzburg games had an xG of over two at the Club World Cup.

Brann make their first appearance in Champions League qualifying since 2008, so this is a big occasion for the Bergen outfit. In a clash between two teams who didn’t win their respective leagues last season, they take on RB Salzburg, with the winners to face Club Brugge.

🔴 Inconsistency Costing Brann in the Eliteserien Title Race

Brann have been in mixed form recently. They just got well beaten 2-0 by KFUM Oslo on Saturday, and it has been their away form which has been a concern. Brann have won all of their last four games at home by a 12:4 margin and generally have been very strong in front of their own fans. They’ve won six out of nine at home in the Eliteserien, suffering just one defeat. 

Brann have been a constant goal threat, averaging 1.78 xG per game in the Eliteserien this season. They have the 2nd-best average xGA per match domestically, but have only kept three clean sheets. Brann recently sold key striker Aune Heggebo to West Brom for around £5 million.

⚪ RB Salzburg Looking to Kick on from Club World Cup

RB Salzburg gave a decent account of themselves at the Club World Cup. They were eventually eliminated in the group stage but beat Pachuca 2-1 and drew 0-0 with quarter-finalists Al-Hilal. They have since followed that up with a pair of friendly matches v Qarabag and Derby County.

All of RB Salzburg’s Club World Cup games had an xG of over 2, and every game contained at least nine corners. Their fixtures tended to be quite open, even the 0-0 v Al Hilal, in which a lot of chances were wasted. The Austrian side have recently sold right back Amar Dedic to Benfica for £12 million, although he didn’t play any part at the Club World Cup.
