Kristiansund - Viking betting tips and odds

Kristiansund managing to pull off a victory here would be quite the upset. They are definitely underdogs, so even the home-field advantage isn’t able to push the odds lower than 4.60 for a home win.

The visiting side should be able to achieve victory in this clash against Kristiansund. Viking are favourites to claim three points and at 1.80 betting odds they are a good pick for any sensible punter.

Kristiansund’s latest performance against Tromsø ended in a narrow 2:1 defeat for them. Top betting predictions overwhelmingly agreed that the match wouldn’t go their way, considering the very difficult matchup and home-field disadvantage. They were already trailing behind at half-time, which lead to a 2:1 away loss.

Viking barely avoided a disaster in their previous away game at Sandefjord. Viking were considered considerably stronger going in but ended up having to play catch-up for most of the match. In the end, a 2:2 draw felt like a success, though it really isn’t in the grand scheme of things.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Kristiansund 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.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over Viking’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

Kristiansund supporters are hoping that the team will manage to beat the odds, but their chances aren’t great if the previous game is any indication. Viking secured a solid home win against them earlier in the season, and all signs are pointing to a similar outcome this time around.

We’re in for an exciting showdown – due to a complete lack of suspensions or injuries, both teams have their full lineups at their disposal. Because they are more likely to win, though, this should work out in the visitors’ advantage.

While it’s risky as far as betting predictions go, a Draw/Away bet in the Half Time/Full Time market is the best place to find betting value in this match. Simply put, the 4.50 odds outweigh the relatively small implied probability.
