Molde take on the visitors KFUM Oslo in the round 11 match of Norwegian Elitserien. The match will be played on Sunday, June 29th at Aker Stadion (Molde).
Molde come into this match after a truly sensational comeback victory over Valerenga, winning 3-2! Trailing at halftime, the team showed real character and completely turned the game around. The stats from that match speak for themselves: 21 shots, 8 on target, and an expected goals (xG) figure of 2.59. These are the numbers of a top-level club that knows how to create chances and relentlessly pressure their opponents. Molde are now unbeaten in their last five league matches, scoring at least two goals in each of them. Their attacking form at Aker Stadion has been particularly impressive, with 10 goals scored in their last three home games. A key figure in that comeback was veteran and captain Magnus Wolff Eikrem, who orchestrated the attack like a true maestro. His class and experience, combined with goals from Fredrik Gulbrandsen and rising star Daniel Daga, show that Molde have both the experience and youthful energy to decide games. This is an attacking unit that’s incredibly difficult to contain. It’s also worth noting that Molde have one of the best conversion rates in the league, consistently turning chances into goals. Their set-piece efficiency has also improved significantly this season, adding yet another weapon to their offensive arsenal.

Now let’s take a look at KFUM—and it’s a completely different story. Just days ago, they suffered a crushing defeat in the Norwegian Cup, losing 0-2 to Lillestrom, a team from a lower division. This wasn’t just a loss; it was a major blow to their morale. The stats from that match were downright dreadful: only 2 shots towards goal and zero on target. It’s also concerning that KFUM have now failed to score in three of their last five matches across all competitions. Their struggles in creating chances have become a recurring issue, especially when playing away from home. KFUM’s head coach Johannes Moesgaard was brutally honest after the cup defeat, calling his team’s performance “definitely the worst this year.” He admitted openly that squad rotation completely backfired and that the team looked toothless. Comments like that from a manager just before an away trip to one of the league’s giants speak volumes. Adding to their problems, KFUM have conceded an average of 2.4 goals per game in their last five away matches. Their defense has looked overwhelmed even against mid-table sides, raising serious concerns ahead of this clash.
Let’s put all the facts together. On one side, we have Molde—a financially powerful club, playing at home, riding high on the emotional wave of a dramatic comeback win in the league. Their attack functions like clockwork, as proven by both the stats and their recent results. They consistently create numerous chances and are highly efficient at converting them. On the other side, we have KFUM—a team that just days ago suffered a lifeless defeat to a lower-division side in the cup, failing to register a single shot on target. Their away form in the league is among the worst, with barely any goals scored on the road. The contrast between the two teams couldn’t be starker.
Prediction for the match: Molde to win.
