Molde – Odds BK
11.07.2021
Molde return to action in the Eliteserien with their clash against Odd. The Norwegian giants have enjoyed an impressive start to the ongoing season and are at the top of the table with 26 points from 12 games, whereas Odd, who have played two fewer games, occupy seventh-place with 16 points. During that encounter with eleventh-placed Sarpsborg, the league leaders succumbed to a 1-0 defeat. As such, Molde are in desperate need of returning to winning ways, with second-placed Bodo/Glimt just two points behind.
Meanwhile, Odd came from behind twice in their last outing to salvage a 2-2 draw against Rosenborg. They have also won three of their last five games in the league and will know they have a realistic chance of walking away with at least a point, should they play to their potential. Historically, Molde have edged this fixture with 16 wins in 42 matches compared to just 11 for Odd.
Molde have enjoyed the upper hand in this fixture more recently as well. Notably, Odd have just a solitary win in the last six meetings between the sides and will be keen to avoid a third straight loss to Molde. All things consider, we are predicting over 2.5 goals to be scored in this game.
