H2H

The rivalry is an even one: 0 wins apiece for Kristiansund BK, 1 for Rosenborg and 1 shared spoils from 2 past contests. Neither side holds a meaningful historical edge.

These sides have historically produced few goals — 0.5 per contest from 2 previous meetings. The Under 2.5 market has a well-supported historical case here. The most recent clash, on 10 Jul 2021, ended 0–1 with Rosenborg winning.

With a balanced win record and just 0.5 goals per game historically, the H2H points toward a tight, low-scoring contest. Under 2.5 goals has the strongest statistical grounding from the fixture history regardless of which side wins.

Trading Patterns

Kristiansund BK in-play and half-time data (50 games, 25 at home): they score before half-time in 64% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 78% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 67% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 56% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 36%.

Rosenborg in-play and half-time data (50 games, 25 at away): they score before half-time in 76% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 58% of the time; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 64% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 40%.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Kristiansund BK 66% and Rosenborg 60% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Kristiansund BK 60% | Rosenborg 68%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Kristiansund BK 1.91 xG and Rosenborg 1.31 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Kristiansund BK attack 1.167 / defence 0.828 | Rosenborg attack 1.198 / defence 0.906. League average goals — home 1.805 / away 1.317. Data: 50 Kristiansund BK games / 50 Rosenborg games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Kristiansund BK 49% | Draw 27% | Rosenborg 24%. Fair-value odds: Kristiansund BK 2.04 | Draw 3.70 | Rosenborg 4.17. Kristiansund BK hold a narrow Poisson edge at 49% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 62% | BTTS probability 64% | Total xG 3.22. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 62% — the 3.22 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 64% reflects that both xG figures (1.91 / 1.31) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Our Verdict

Poisson rates Kristiansund BK as the most likely outcome at 49% — moderate model lean. With a 27% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Kristiansund BK offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.22 combined xG gives a 62% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 3.0 goals per game.

Poisson assigns a 64% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Kristiansund BK 40% | Rosenborg 90% BTTS from recent games.
