Entering the third round of the Norwegian Cup this week, Tomorows match between Aalesunds FK and Molde FK will be extremely important and interesting to watch because both team is at the top of their respective league tables they are playing. While Aalesunds FK is ranked No. 1 in Division 1, Molde is also standing firm at the top spot in Norway's highest tournament, Eliteserien. In the previous history, the two sides have met several times, in which Molde FK has won majority if them all. So since the both teams are more familiar with each other, they would definitely do their best to fill in their names in the next round instead of having to say the words. Coming to this match, Aalesunds FK has the advantage of home field but Molde owns a better quality team.

AALESUNDS FK

Although Aalesunds FK is somewhat weaker than the opponent, but due to their recent performance and the players seriousness, the host are a team to beat this season in any competition. Coach Bohinen's and his players will be having the advantage of playing at home at the Color Line Stadion, not to mention the team's recent form as well as being unbeaten in the last 5 matches (winning 4, and drawing 1, with a winning ratio of 60%). The cheering from the stands will be another great source of encouragement and a solid axle for the club to overcome this difficult game against strong opposition like Molde. With the team recent performance, they will surely be motivated coming to this game to create an huge upset for the guest. Although, the guest Molde FK is very strong tactically, but currently, they are playing erratically and this will be an opportunity for the host to win, and book a place in the next round of the Norwegian Cup.

MOLDE FK

Although, Molde FK are not very impressive this season, but coach Erling Moe had still managed to get his team to the top of Eliteserien league. The morale of the team is extremely comfortable after the victory over Ranheim recently and they will march to the Color Line Stadion with the highest determination. Aalesunds FK is a team that is no stranger to Molde, this is also the "ideal prey" for the club to continue to maintain the momentum of excitement when returning to the domestic tournament this weekend. Molde FK have always proved to be superior when playing against Aalesund, with them winning 8 and losing 2 matches in their last 10 encounters. Molde had always shown a hidden potential danger when playing against Aalesund FK, so it will not be a surprise if Molde left with a victory tomorrow at the Color Line Stadium.
