Betting Tips: Vålerenga Oslo – Juventus

Brann led the way for Norwegian teams last season, and now it’s Vålerenga’s turn to shine in the Champions League. The Oslo team has made it to the group stage after sweeping Anderlecht aside in the qualifiers, and Nils Lexerød’s squad has landed in a tough group.

We did well with our Champions League bet on Tuesday, betting on “both teams to score” for the match between Chelsea and Real Madrid. Chelsea were heavy favorites (1.40), but it was a close call, ending 3-2 to the home side. Guro Reiten contributed to our winning bet (odds 1.55) by scoring Chelsea's second goal from the penalty spot. New opportunities arise today, this time featuring a Norwegian Champions League debutant in the spotlight.

Vålerenga – Juventus

Vålerenga are the reigning champions of Toppserien, and after winning their last ten matches in the domestic league, they are just details away from a new title. They lead Brann by eleven points, with only 15 points left to play for. Vålerenga are also set for the Norwegian cup final, but the Champions League is the primary goal.

“We have good confidence in the team and many players in great form, and our goal is to win the match tomorrow. The objective for the group stage is to win at home and secure draws away. We hope many spectators come, and that these matches can inspire young Norwegian girls and give them faith that they can succeed in international football,” Lexerød tells the club’s website.

Juventus has also reached the main tournament after qualifying, achieving a remarkable feat by eliminating Paris Saint-Germain. In fact, Juventus is the first club to knock PSG out of Europe before the quarter-finals since 2014, when Swedish Tyresö proved too strong. The Italians won 3-1 at home, followed by goals from Sofia Cantore and Barbara Bonansea securing a 2-1 victory in Paris. After straight wins against Fiorentina and Sampdoria, Juventus is also at the top of the Serie A table.

Betting Tips, Champions League

Vålerenga has been dominant in Toppserien, but they will face a much tougher challenge here. The artificial turf plays to the home team's advantage, but the visiting Italians remain clear betting favorites. We still believe in the same betting tips as yesterday. Vålerenga has scored 25 goals in their last seven league matches, while Juventus has netted 23 in their last seven. We are also betting on “both teams to score” today.
