A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Kristiansund fans are optimistic that the difference between 3rd and Mjøndalen's 13th place in the table will show on the pitch.
- Kristiansund is in the best form (5-0-1)
- All of Mjøndalen's away-matches have had more than 1,5 goals.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Kristiansund form and stats
3-0-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Eliteserien numbers at home for Kristiansund so far this season. It’s been three wins in a row for Kristiansund here at Kristiansund Stadion, hoping to make this one the fourth consecutive victory.
Kristiansund lost their last game at Haugesund (placed 10th) after a 0-3 scoreline. The attacker Torgil Owre Gjertsen was "man of the match" for Kristiansund with a rating of 7.6/10. Gjertsen hit two key passes and dribled passed the opponent 2 of 2 times. Sean McDermott had a busy but productive day in the Haugesund match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented.
Ahead of that match, Kristiansund won a home game hosting Odd (2-0).The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Kristiansund's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won two matches, drawn one and lost one.
Kristiansund are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 4 games. Kristiansund have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 2 goals.
Mjøndalen form and stats
Mjøndalen are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Eliteserien, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses). Mjøndalen seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
There were no winners in Mjøndalen's previous match, a Eliteserien home game that ended 1-1 vs Strømsgodset (placed 12th). Sondre Solholm Johansen, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.82. Johansen hit three key passes and won 7 of 10 duels.
Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Bodø / Glimt's place.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Mjøndalen playing away, we found five games. Results were one away win, one draw and three home wins.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Mjøndalen have scored 4 goals in 3 league games away. As opposed to that, Mjøndalen have seen the ball go into their own net 4 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: three wins for Kristiansund, three draws and four wins for Mjøndalen. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.Top Goalscorers
