LILLESTROM SK-COPENHAGEN FC


The Danish champions claim to be suffering the effects of a successful, but very long year and travel without 5 key regulars.

Despite not being able to progress from the group stage of the Champions League, they seem to be giving priority to their upcoming fixture with Celtic. That match is decidedly more high profile, sold out and with a large amount of prize money at stake, the experience gained from such games, will stand them in good stead for future campaigns, so it makes very good sense.

Lillestrom are strong at home and this will be just their second home game for new coach Tom Nordlie, who took charge on November 16, a win today will go a long way to ensuring advancement in the competition.

Few away wins in the competition to date, just 2 in 12 starts. Think we have to side with the Norwegians, who look to be the more motivated of the two.

3 points Lillestrom -1/4 asian line 2.03.

Good Luck.
