Competition: Norway - Eliteserien Date: Monday, 23rd, September 2024 Kickoff: 18:00 UK / 19.00 CEST Venue: KFUM Arena (Oslo) Molde will look to keep their slim title hopes alive as they head to the Norwegian capital to face KFUM-Kameratene in Monday’s round 23 of the Eliteserien. In their debut season in Norway's top football division after last year's promotion, it's fair to say that KFUM Oslo have adjusted quite well so far, and most importantly, the primary goal named "survival" is going according to plan. Their next league challenge comes in the form of a Molde side that is presenting itself in a much better light than last season with a fifth-place finish, which was their lowest league placement under the guidance of Erling Moe. During the five-year tenure of the 54-year-old coach, MFK have won the Eliteserien title on two occasions, but they will require a great deal of fortune to climb back to the summit, as league leaders Bodo/Glimt run away by as many as 10 points with eight rounds until the curtain goes down. KFUM Oslo vs Molde Betting Tips: MOLDE TO WIN Hope springs eternal, so a 10-point deficit is not insurmountable, but Molde must not even consider dropping points here if they want to stay in the title race. Following a narrow 1-2 defeat against Rosenborg earlier this month, Erling Moe's men responded brilliantly by first demolishing Fredrikstad 6-1 before putting four unanswered goals against Kristiansund last time out. Currently sitting second but tied on points with third and fourth, MFK is aware that any slip-up could significantly impact their position and title hopes, but it appears they will secure a comprehensive reward this time without any drama. We say this as visitors KFUM Oslo have fallen into a serious results crisis in recent weeks, with their last four top-flight matches resulting in three losses and not a single goal scored. Furthermore, Kaffa have struggled at their own KFUM Arena, having claimed only two successes from 11 home matches, which makes them one of the weakest home sides in Eliteserien. Considering all factors, we believe that the free-scoring Molde will take full advantage of their opponent's current struggles and refresh their points tally with another three points.
