Mjondalen vs Odd BK Predictions

These two sides might be separated by sixteen points and twelve places in the Eliteserien table this season but both teams head into Sunday’s game in good form and have proven hard to beat over the last month. As little as a draw on Sunday could prove enough for Mjondalen to move out of the relegation places, while Odd need a win to stand any chance of moving above Molde and taking the top spot in the table.

Mjondalen made the trip to high flying Brann last week hoping to continue their unbeaten run and, despite having just 36% of the overall possession, two corners, and two shots during the ninety minutes, the visitors defended manfully and held on to secure a goalless draw. Odd were at home on Wednesday night against Stabaek, where a goal from Borven put the hosts in front in the tenth minute but an equaliser shortly after saw the teams head in at the break level. With fifteen minutes left on the clock, Odd were awarded a penalty which Borven stepped up and converted to win the game for the hosts.

The head to head record between these two sides and the performances of both teams over the last six weeks suggests we won’t see many goals scored on Sunday but that Odd will do enough to secure all three points. Odd have never lost against Mjondalen before, won their last trip to Mjondalen, and the last encounter between these two clubs produced under 2.5 goals and saw Odd win 1-0. Five of Mjondalen’s last six matches have produced under 2.5 goals, which is why we’re backing a narrow 1-0 win for the visitors this weekend.

Brochmann top scores for the hosts this season with four Eliteserien goals, while Borven, the midweek hero for Odd, leads the way with an impressive eleven league goals to his name. We’re confident that Odd will win on Sunday and have predicted a final scoreline of 1-0. Odd have outplayed their hosts so far this season and have an unbeaten record against them, but Mjondalen are enjoying an unbeaten run of their own and could prove tricky to beat which is why we have backed a narrow 1-0 win for Odd.
