Home - Sandefjord
- Sandefjord are unbeaten in their last 3 home games, winning 2 and drawing 1.
- The clash at Sandefjord Stadion on Monday evening sees Sandefjord looking to extend their recent unbeaten run at home against a Fredrikstad side that has suffered 4 defeats in their last 5 matches.
- Sandefjord’s overall form has been indifferent with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats in their last 5 outings, but Hans Erik Oedegaard has done a very good job in the short time he has been in charge at the club.
- His side have performed consistently at home this term, taking 7 points from 4 Eliteserien 2026 games to date (W2, D1, L1).
- They sit in seventh spot in the table with 13 points from their first 8 fixtures, which is a solid start to the campaign.
- They average just 0.75 goals per game at home, but have improved on that recently and will feel confident of finding the back of the net against a leaky Fredrikstad FK defence.
Away - Fredrikstad FK
- Fredrikstad FK have lost all of their last 3 away games, winning none.
- The visitors are making the long trip north to Sandefjord after a 2-1 home win over Hamarkameratene.
- They are 14th in the standings with only 7 points from their opening 8 fixtures and are in a state of tactical transition.
- Fredrikstad are now led by Casper Røjkjær, who has taken over and brought with him a very different style of play.
- Fredrikstad are scoring at a rate of 1.00 goals per away game in Eliteserien 2026, but they are conceding at a whopping average of 2.6 goals away from home.
Head-to-Head
Sandefjord have failed to win their last 3 games against Fredrikstad FK (2 draws, 1 loss).
Betting Insights
- Given that Fredrikstad have conceded 13 goals in their 5 Eliteserien 2026 away games and Sandefjord are a much more direct and high-energy team than most in the division, we’re predicting Over 2.5 goals at 1.63.
- The hosts score at a modest rate at home, only 0.75 goals per game, so we’re also predicting Both Teams to Score - No at 2.3.
Prediction
- However, this is a tough fixture for Fredrikstad FK as it is a litmus test of whether the new tactical direction at the club is working or not.
- Given that Sandefjord have the quality and momentum to exploit these weaknesses, we’re supporting the home side to continue their momentum with a win this Monday night.
