Stabæk - Kristiansund betting tips and odds

Stabæk have their work cut out for them if they want to beat Kristiansund. They are widely considered to be the weaker team – though the difference is not huge, to be fair. Overall, it’s shaping up to be an exciting showdown.

The visitors are not walking into an easy match by any means, but they should be able to come out on top. Winning this match will be a welcome boost to their rankings, though such an outcome is priced at 2.35.

Stabæk’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Sarpsborg 08 as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 4:1 loss for Stabæk.

After an undecided first half in the previous round, Kristiansund went on to bag a decisive 2:4 victory against Odd. Considering the 7.00 betting odds they were given by most online bookies for an away win, the performance was impressive by any measure.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Stabæk’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

Results and standings notwithstanding, Kristiansund 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.

As far as the head-to-head history goes, this is the second time we’ll be seeing these two squads clash this season. Kristiansund decisively won that first match, and they’re still seen as the favourites despite playing as the away team.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.68 odds offered at Betsson.
