Anders Hiim has delivered a strong season for Sarpsborg 08 after overcoming last year's injury setbacks. The 24-year-old left-back has been a stabilising factor in defence, earning praise from the coaching staff.
- No given thing, said the coach of Hiim's performance and return to top form.
Hiim has secured a regular starting spot in a season where Sarpsborg 08 currently sit ninth in Eliteserien with 25 points. The team has an important home fixture against KFUM Oslo on Friday. In the most recent meeting between the sides, just two days ago, Sarpsborg lost 1-3 at home. Daniel Seland Karlsbakk scored their only goal from the penalty spot.
Following the KFUM match, an away trip to face Aalesund awaits on October 11th. Aalesund are 15th in the table. With Karlsbakk as top scorer with six goals so far this season, Sarpsborg 08 will need all their key players, including Hiim, to turn around the recent run of two consecutive defeats.
