Sandefjord vs Molde Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 8 November 2026
🔊 Molde are fighting for a place on the podium, but travel to face opponents who have beaten them in four of their last five head-to-head meetings. They cannot afford a slip-up: they are third, but fourth-placed Rosenborg have the same number of points, and any dropped points could cost Molde a place in the top three. Sandefjord need points too: they are 12th, three points clear of 14th place, which leads to the play-offs. Can the hosts thwart Molde again?
Head-to-Head
Molde beat Sandefjord (2-1) in their most recent Eliteserien meeting. Sandefjord had more shots - 16 to 14 - but Molde had the edge on expected goals: 1.76 to 0.85.
In 27 head-to-head meetings, Molde have won 12 and Sandefjord 10. Another five matches ended in draws. At Sandefjord’s ground, the teams have five wins each from 12 matches, and both sides scored in 11 of those meetings.
Head-to-head statistics Sandefjord - Molde
Sandefjord Team Overview
Sandefjord beat Aalesund 4-3 in their previous Eliteserien match. The visitors had more possession - 64% - and more shots on target (9-5), despite having a player sent off.
Attack is Sandefjord’s biggest problem. Andreas Tegström’s side have scored 26 goals in 25 matches - the same as bottom-placed Start, and no team have scored fewer. Until recently, Sandefjord had scored just once in three Eliteserien matches. That made the last round all the more surprising: away from home, they scored four times and beat Aalesund (4:3). Their attacking weakness is particularly noticeable at home: Sandefjord have taken all three points just once in their last eight home league matches.
Match Results: Sandefjord
Molde Team Overview
Molde lost to Brann (2-3) in the previous round of the Eliteserien. The defeat contrasts with the visitors' advantage in shots (17-13) and expected goals (3.23 to 1.58).
Molde have one of the best attacks in the league, but their defence cannot keep pace. They have scored 59 goals, the third-highest tally behind Viking and Bodø/Glimt. Molde have scored in 20 consecutive matches in all competitions. But they have conceded in nine straight away matches in the Eliteserien. That was also the case in the last round: after three emphatic home wins, Molde lost 3-2 to Brann.
Match Results: Molde
Prediction for the 1st half
Molde have led at half-time in seven of their last eight matches and have failed to score in the first half only once in 12 games. The risk is that Sandefjord have scored before the break in eight of the last nine head-to-head meetings at home. Nevertheless, we expect the visitors to be ahead after the first half. Bet - Molde to win the first half at 2.16*.
Match Result Prediction
Sandefjord have won just one of their last eight home matches, while Molde have won almost twice as often as the hosts this season. The risk is that Molde have only four wins in 12 away matches. We still expect the visitors to take all three points. Bet - Molde to Win at 1.73*.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Sandefjord keep things tight at home: 18 of their last 19 home matches in the Eliteserien have featured fewer than four goals. The head-to-head record points the same way: Molde have scored no more than two goals against Sandefjord in six consecutive meetings. Yes, the visitors' last six away games have each featured at least four goals, but Sandefjord's home run is three times as long. We predict the visitors will come out on top, but the scoreline in Sandefjord will remain modest. Bet - Total Goals - Under 3.5.
Will this prediction come true?
