Prediction Sandefjord vs Kristiansund season – Betting Tips for Eliteserien on 20th July 2025

As the excitement of the Eliteserien continues, fans are eagerly anticipating the clash between Sandefjord and Kristiansund at the Komplett Arena in Sandefjord on July 20, 2025.

Home Team Momentum: Sandefjord

Sandefjord enters this match sitting in 7th place, boasting a record of 7 wins, 0 draws, and 6 losses from 13 matches. With a total of 21 points, they have found the net 22 times while conceding 18 goals. Their recent form shows fluctuations, highlighted by a demolition of Haugesund (4-0), but a tough loss against Bodø/Glimt, which underscores both their potential and vulnerabilities.

In terms of statistics, Sandefjord has a solid home advantage. This season, they have scored 16 goals and conceded only 3 in home games, indicating that they are a formidable force on their home turf. However, their tendency towards inconsistent performances – as seen in their previous three games, which saw them win against Rosenborg but lose to Brann – brings an unpredictable edge to this encounter.

Away Team Challenge: Kristiansund

Kristiansund finds themselves in 9th place, with a record skewed slightly towards struggle, consisting of 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses from 15 matches. They have scored 18 goals but also conceded 20, emphasizing their defensive frailties this season. Their most recent encounter ended in a goalless draw against Sarpsborg 08, further highlighting their struggle to find a winning formula.

Despite their struggles, Kristiansund has shown flashes of potential, including a penalty shootout victory over Stabæk, which may provide a psychological boost. However, their away form presents a distinct challenge, having conceded 13 goals in away matches and managing just 11 scored.

Betting Market Insights

With the current odds reflecting Sandefjord’s favorable home ground situation at 1.57 to Kristiansund’s 5.00, it’s clear where the bookmakers are leaning. Many fans may still be cautious, given the unpredictability surrounding the away side.

The majority of statistics favor a win for Sandefjord, especially considering their home scoring prowess. However, Kristiansund's tendency to draw indicates they could stymie Sandefjord's attack.

With the home team's strong performance and Kristiansund’s inconsistency away from home, Sandefjord is likely to secure the three points.
