Strømsgodset - Kristiansund predictions

Though Strømsgodset are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

The visitors are aware of the challenge that awaits them. To come out on top against Strømsgodset on their own field would be a major achievement, and it is always a tough task.

Strømsgodset earned a standing ovation for the last round’s victory. The last Eliteserien trip saw did not have them as firm favourites to win, on the contrary. They still did well enough to take the halftime lead and close the game in style (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY).

It would be safe to say that Kristiansund were the underdogs in the previous round. The odds implied the game could have gone either way, but they were playing as the home team and the predictions weren’t too optimistic. However, they went into halftime with a lead and transitioned it into a 1:0 home win.

Strømsgodset are hoping to continue their winning streak. After 3 consecutive wins, they might just do that against Kristiansund. Top bookmakers online definitely believe so and we tend to agree.

Looking back at the head-to-head history of this matchup, it’s understandable why most bookmakers online decided to price a home win at 2.06. They soundly defeated Kristiansund last season, and it’s reasonable to expect another triumph.

With no injuries or suspensions to deal with, both teams will be able to give their all this Sunday.

Our prediction would be a fairly safe Home Win bet at the odds of 1.93. It’s obvious the hosts have a clear advantage going into this clash, and there’s plenty of reasons to feel confident in their success.
