Viking FK vs Kristiansund BK Predictions

• Viking have won three consecutive matches against Kristiansund since August 2021.
• The visitors are yet to claim a single Eliteserien win this season, earning one point from 11 games.
• Kristiansund have only scored seven goals in those outings, drawing a blank in six.

Kristiansund set for more suffering

Kristiansund are the only side in the Norwegian Eliterserien without a win this season, having taken a pitiful one point from 11 outings thus far. A trip to third-placed Viking, then, seems to offer little respite for Christian Michelsen’s men, with the hosts ending their own poor run in brilliant fashion last time out.

Indeed, Viking had gone six games without a win before an impressive 1-0 win at title challengers Lillestrom last time out. The eight-time Eliteserien champions have won all three of their meetings with Kristiansund since August 2021, and after losing just one of their eight home games in 2022, conceding fewer home goals (five) than all but Lillestrom (two), they look well placed for another win.

The visitors, on the other hand, have lost seven games on the bounce after going down 3-0 to Valerenga last time out, and are already 12 points adrift of the relegation play-off spot. They have failed to score in six of their 11 league outings, netting just twice in six away trips, so shouldn’t offer much on Sunday.

Viking set for comfortable success

With Kristiansund toiling at the bottom of the Eliteserien and struggling to buy a goal at present, we’re tipping the hosts to boost their hopes of gate-crashing the title race with a win and a clean sheet.

Meanwhile, a 2-0 home triumph looks a strong correct score prediction, with Kristiansund conceding multiple goals in each of their last eight games.
