Kristiansund form and stats

When playing at home in the Eliteserien, Kristiansund have managed 5 wins, 4 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 12 games.

Kristiansund's last game was hosting Mjøndalen (placed 15th) and winning 1-0. 2-2 away at Molde before that.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Kristiansund have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won five times, drawn three and lost one.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (27 in 12 games), Kristiansund's attacking play is working. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Kristiansund defense is not exactly impregnable. 19 goals conceded from 12 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Strømsgodset form and stats

There's been little loot from Strømsgodset's travels as they have only collected 10 points from 12 away games in the Eliteserien. Strømsgodset only have 2 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 4 draws. Strømsgodset are desperate to end a eleven-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Haugesund fixture. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Strømsgodset are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Strømsgodset's previous game was their home loss versus Bodø / Glimt (1-2). Prior to that match, the Strømsgodset manager H. Pedersen faced defeat when travelling to Mjøndalen and losing 0-3.

We have checked recent matches where Strømsgodset have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eight games were two victories, one draw and five defeats.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Strømsgodset have scored 14 goals in 12 league games away. The Strømsgodset manager H. Pedersen has some worries about the defense as 24 goals have been conceded in these travels.
