Sarpsborg 08 - HamKam predictions

The home team is the obvious choice for anyone looking to bet on favourites. The match is not completely one-sided, though, which is why you may actually get worthwhile returns.

It would be a minor miracle for HamKam to win at Sarpsborg 08, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 4.33 price on most online sportsbooks.

Sarpsborg 08’s defeat in the previous round was to be expected, frankly. They played as visitors against a considerably stronger team - Sandefjord . They were already trailing behind during half-time, and things only went down from there on, resulting in a compelling 4:1 defeat.

HamKam’s latest performance against Haugesund was a bit below expectations. Everything seemed fine in the first half– they had an early lead, a slightly favourable matchup, and home-field advantage. In the end, however, they had to settle for a 2:2 draw.

Sarpsborg 08 gans are hoping for better defensive performance then what they’ve seen in away games. The previous three matches featured 6 conceded goals.

HamKam’s recent performances as visitors tended to end with a small number of goals on the scoreboard. Specifically, their 5 latest away games all featured 2 goals or less.

Sarpsborg 08 previously played this match as the visitors in a previous round of the Eliteserien and suffered a fairly narrow defeat. Most bookies believe things will end differently this time, pricing a home win at 1.78.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

An Under 3.5 Goals bet is an interesting choice for this match. It’s quite safe as you might expect, but the 1 odds offer more in the way of betting value than you would think.
