There are no grounds at this point to underestimate BSK like this. I took a look at Falk in the last round, but also BSK against OIF. Falk are still on second-league level. They have a couple of good individuals, Ilic who is a solid goalkeeper, but that's still weak. Besides, the results prove it. They beat only Hallvard and LTH who know each other well from last season and the second league. The remaining five matches they lost. Out of that four were at home. In those four matches they remained at -5 against Haslum, -7 against OIF, -11 against Elverum, and -12 against Fyllingen. To draw a parallel, BSK left Haslum at 5, champions OIF at 8 points of difference. FALK won the match against LTH, but the too wide and too tall home defense suited them. Considering they're quite short, they had no trouble coming through. Today they won't have that possibility. BSK's back line is tall, their formation is either 5-1 or 6-0 and nothing will be smooth here. Even if they pass, Jugman and Saevaras are in excellent shape and that's another plus for the away team. BSK progressed a lot. They lost only a single game to Elverum, and it was tight. They failed against Kolstad and that was the only weaker match they had. They were better even in the defeat by Elverum. Still, beating Haslum, Halden and OIF is impressive. By half-time they were already at +7, and later then went to +14, after which they slowed down a bit. Considering they are a team with amazing counterattacks and semi-counterattacks, they won't go here under 5 points of difference. I think BSK are at least two steps above at this point, and I would be surprised if Falk passed better than in the matches against Elverum and Fyllingen. The pre-season match is no measurement since it was played at Haslum Cup tournament with colorful line-ups. Today's game of both teams is a whole different matter.
