Haugesund hosts Kristiansund in round 6 of the Norwegian Eliteserien. The match will be played on Sunday, June 20th at Haugesund Stadion (Haugesund)
Haugesund is one of the youngest football projects in the country. The club was founded in 1993. But the Arabs have already managed to be among the medalists of the Eliteserien (in 2013 they took 3rd place) and reached the cup final a couple of times. In general, they are middle peasants, but not without ambitions. So, the current mediocre results are a bit surprising (only five points scored). However, Haugesund played only five matches. The championship started with two goalless draws against Sarpsborg 08 and Stabaek, and then the Arabs lost to the reigning champion Bodo/Glimt away. The end of spring brought a spectacular 4-2 victory over Viking. But June began with a new defeat. Haugesund lost to Lilleström away (2-1).

Kristiansund was founded only in 2003. And this team made its debut in the top division only in 2017. However, the Owls immediately showed the seriousness of their intentions. The newcomer immediately took 7th place and then it was ranked sixth or fifth. Is Kristiansund ready to reach new heights? The championship began with a couple of defeats, but the Owls played against Molde and Bodo/Glimt, which are the main favorites of the Eliteserien (both games ended with a 0-2 score). But then Christian Michelsen's charges gained one hundred percent result: they won all five subsequent games and didn’t concede a single goal in four of them. On June 12, Kristiansund won 2-0 against Odd. It is not surprising that the team holds on to the 3rd place (15 points after seven games) and bypasses Molde in terms of lost points.
Haugesund usually fights very hard against Kristiansund. In 2019, the Arabs even scored four points out of six, and two games in the last championship brought draws. The hosts are not bad, but the Owls show a very powerful game. It seems that they can at least not lose.
Prediction for the match: Kristiansund to win with +0.5 handicap
