Kristiansund form and stats

Kristiansund have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Eliteserien, after 1-1-10 (12 played).

There were no winners in Kristiansund's previous match, the home game that ended 4-4 vs Rosenborg (placed 3rd). Drawing 4-4 against Rosenborg after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 3-1. Their manager Michelsen needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. Kartum got a match rating of 8.41 in that game, top player of the team. Kartum scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

Prior to that match, the Kristiansund manager Michelsen faced defeat when travelling to Strømsgodset and losing 1-4.

Kristiansund are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats. From a total of 12 matches.

Goal hungry football fans should note that 12 of this side's 16 most recent league games have ended with three goals or more.

The schedule is very tough for Kristiansund now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A NM Cup game at Viking is waiting in only three days.

The attacking power of Kristiansund when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 12 league matches away. Kristiansund struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 23 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

Kristiansund have won or drawn the last 4 matches (3-1-0) against Odd.

Odd and Kristiansund have faced off before this season: Kristiansund - Odd 2-2.
