Bryne - Sarpsborg 08 predictions

Bryne are not exactly firm favourites to register three points in this game but we still believe they will manage to defeat Sarpsborg 08. The odds of 2.38 might sound a bit risky but we still trust hosts can come out on top in the end.

The visiting team is fully aware of the challenge that lies ahead. A win against Bryne on their home field would be a significant achievement, and it is never an easy task.

Bryne’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Bodø / Glimt as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 5:0 loss for Bryne.

The away team lost their previous Eliteserien engagement quite badly, recording a 0:2 defeat on home ground. The betting odds implied that the two teams were quite evenly matched, and they hit a stalemate that lasted until the second half. The poor showing towards the end doesn’t look good for Sarpsborg 08, though.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Bryne have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

Results and standings notwithstanding, Sarpsborg 08 have run into some defensive issues in this stretch of the Eliteserien. In the past 3 matches, they allowed more than 5 goals to their opponents, which may be cause for concern for their supporters.

This Sunday, both teams will have a full roster available to them, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet is easily the smartest choice for this fixture, consider in the teams’ respective histories. It’s a considerably more probable outcome than it seems, so the 1 odds are great value.
