Stabæk's last game was hosting Kristiansund and winning 2-0. The points were shared before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Vålerenga.

This is expected to be a close game, with Stabæk perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Stabæk as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Stabæk has won 6 of these, drawn 2 and lost 3.

Kristiansund form and stats

Kristiansund have only collected 9 points from their away games after 2-3-5 (10 played).

Two away games in a row for Kristiansund, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-2 versus Stabæk in the Eliteserien. A loss against Bodø / Glimt was the result prior to that, in a home game.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Kristiansund playing away and similar expectations, we found five relevant matches. Results were 1 Kristiansund win, 2 draws and 2 defeats.

The attacking power of Kristiansund when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored in 10 matches. 13 goals have been conceded by Kristiansund in these games.
