Kristiansund - HamKam predictions

Though we can call Kristiansund the favourites in this matchup, HamKam are not about to make it easy for them. It’s gearing up to be an exciting match overall, and no outcome can be ruled out at this point.

Out of their home field and heading into this match as underdogs, HamKam would need to play their best to have a hope of winning. That said, even a draw would be a positive outcome, and all three results are quite possible.

The 2:2 result at the end of Kristiansund’s previous match against Strømsgodset was quite surprising. They were considered far weaker than their opponents going in, yet managed to pull ahead in the first half.

HamKam found themselves facing a seemingly impossible situation last round. They were the 5.95 underdogs playing an away game and were even behind at halftime. Against all odds, though, they pulled together and equalised in the second half, pulling off a downright miraculous 1:1 draw.

Kristiansund have displayed rather inconsistent defensive play in their previous outings. Specifically, their previous 3 away games have been marked by more than 5 conceded goals. They may be at home this time, but such records usually highlight deeper issues than a home-field disadvantage.

The last two times we saw HamKam at their home field both matches ended with less than 1 goal total. Although they’re the away team this time, online bookmakers are predicting another low-scoring affair.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Sunday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

The best choice for this fixture is quite easy to figure out – an Under 2.5 Goals bet at the odds of 1.93. It’s an almost guaranteed win that’s not too bad in the value department either.
