Kristiansund vs. sarpsborg
Norway – Eliteserien
Date: Saturday, August 22, 2024
Starts at 17pm UK / 00pm CET
Venue: Kristiansund Stadium (Kristiansund).
Kristiansund's excellent winning streak came to an end in the last league match. The loss to Odds was more or less expected and took their losing tally to three games. They are more interested in tying games than winning them. That's why six of their 14 games were drawn, while only five were wins.
Meanwhile, the visiting team is one of the most inconsistent teams this year. It has already lost seven games, but enters this game with a victory over Molde. Although beating the champions is a positive aspect, they have a hard time winning games away from home.
Kristiansund vs Sarpsborg: Head to Head (h2h)
- Kristiansund has a three-game winning streak against this opponent.
- They haven't lost any of their last five head-to-head matches.
- Over 2,5 goals have been scored in four of their previous six encounters.
- Four of those games also saw goals from both ends of the field.
- In this field, the home team remains undefeated in the three meetings with Sarpsborg.
Kristiansund vs Sarpsborg: Prediction
There is no doubt that there will be goals in this one. The home team scored 27 goals, but the defense gave 20 goals in return. Despite following a series of victories, this match could be tied, mainly because the visitors beat Molde. Speaking of the visitors, he manages to annoy the home defense with his attacking power. If they can break down one of the best defenses in the competition, they could do that against the Owls as well.
Most of the Owls' home games have been over 2,5 goals. The same result can be seen in 11 of the 14 league games so far. Four of Sarpsborg's last road games have also seen a similar scoring trend. So I bet on a match of goals with both teams scoring goals.
