It has been a time of upheaval for Lillestrom SK following the shock departure their manager to bitter rivals Valerenga but Sunday offers a good opportunity to climb the Eliteserien standings against Sandefjord. Few saw manager Geir Bakke making the move from Lillestrom to Valerenga but his departure could well galvanise a side that have been inconsistent since their Norwegian Cup final defeat to Brann back in May. Sandefjord on the other hand have had very little to cheer about of late and have been shipping goals at an alarming rate in recent months. It might well be another long evening for ..read more

Selections 19:55 – Baryshnikov @ SP 20:30 – Churchella @ SP 21:00 – Fortuitous Star @ SP 19:55 – Baryshnikov @ SP Baryshnikov was a little unfortunate when finishing strongly in third at Redcar last time out and David & Nicola Barron’s charge rates a cracking each-way bet this evening. The seven-year-old was beaten just a nose at Ripon prior to the run at Redcar and Baryshnikov goes to post off just a one pound higher mark this evening. B ..read more
