✍️ Match Preview
Full Analysis
Fredrikstad Stadion plays host to Fredrikstad versus Viking in Eliteserien (matchday 6). Kick-off: Saturday 25 April 2026 at 15:00 UK time.
Form & Momentum
Fredrikstad have collected 1.20 PPG across their last 10 games: 3W 3D 4L. Last five: D W W L L. They are averaging 1.10 goals per game and conceding 1.20 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%).
Fredrikstad at home: 3W 4D 3L from their last 10 home games — 1.30 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Viking (all games): 8W 2D 0L across their last 10 — 2.60 points per game. Last five: W W W W W. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.80 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Viking's form when playing away from home: 6W 3D 1L across their last 10 road games (2.10 PPG). They are averaging 1.90 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture. Their away PPG of 2.10 is notably below their overall 2.60 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
The travelling side arrive in better shape. Viking are 1.40 PPG clear of Fredrikstad over their recent games (2.60 vs 1.20). Backing the visitors outright or on Draw No Bet are both valid approaches where the price allows.
The BTTS picture is exceptionally clear (from Fredrikstad's last 10 home games and Viking's last 10 away games) — both teams have scored in 70% of Fredrikstad's games and 80% of Viking's. Both sides above 70% makes BTTS Yes one of the strongest standalone angles in this fixture.
Head-to-Head
Neither side has dominated the 4 H2H matches in our data: 1 wins for Fredrikstad, 2 for Viking and 1 draw — leaving the H2H largely neutral.
The 4 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.8 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 23 Nov 2025, ended Fredrikstad 0–1 Viking — a Viking win.
The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.
Trading & In-Play
Fredrikstad — key trading statistics (last 60 games, 30 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 63% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 74% of the time; of the 16 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 25%; of the 16 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 25%; BTTS occurs in 47% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (home games); they fail to score in 32% of games.
Viking — key trading statistics (last 60 games, 30 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 80% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 93% of the time; of the 15 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 60%; BTTS occurs in 73% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 70% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 48%.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Fredrikstad 42% versus Viking 68%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Fredrikstad 40% | Viking 68%). There is an in-play dynamic worth noting: Fredrikstad surrender their half-time lead 25% of the time, while Viking have come from behind at the break to draw or win in 60% of cases — a combination that makes laying the hosts at HT a potential angle.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Fredrikstad 1.41 xG and Viking 1.22 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: Fredrikstad attack 1.018 / defence 0.959 | Viking attack 1.028 / defence 0.850. League average goals — home 1.630 / away 1.232. Data: built from Fredrikstad's last 35 games and Viking's last 35.
Result probabilities: Fredrikstad 41% | Draw 28% | Viking 31%. Fair-value odds: Fredrikstad 2.46 | Draw 3.58 | Viking 3.18. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 28% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 49% | BTTS Yes probability 54% | Total xG 2.63. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 49%/51% — the total xG of 2.63 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 54% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Picks & Verdict
On the Poisson output, Fredrikstad are the pick at 41% — marginal model lean. Note a divergence: in-form Viking (2.60 PPG) cuts against the Poisson lean — the model adjusts for opposition strength, which raw form results do not. Draw probability of 28% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Fredrikstad if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 31% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
Poisson projects 2.63 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 51% probability — low conviction — though recent form (Fredrikstad's last 10 home games and Viking's last 10 away games) averaging 3.0 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 2.8 goals per game across 4 H2H matches point the other way.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 54% on Yes. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Fredrikstad 70% (last 10 home games) | Viking 80% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Viking beat Fredrikstad 1-2 at Fredrikstad Stadion, Regular Season - 6, in the Eliteserien. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Fredrikstad 1.41 xG and Viking 1.22 xG, a combined 2.63. The scoreboard read 1-2 for 3 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Fredrikstad attack 1.02 / defence 0.96 against Viking attack 1.03 / defence 0.85, drawn from 35/35 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Fredrikstad 41% | Draw 28% | Viking 31%, with Fredrikstad to win its most likely call at 41%. The actual Viking win had been the model's second-ranked read at 31%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 49%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 75% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 54% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 54% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Fredrikstad 40%, Viking 68%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 55%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Fredrikstad's trading profile (60 games, 30 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 42% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 37% of the time, and conceded here.
Viking's trading profile (60 games, 30 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 68% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
On form, Viking arrived the stronger side — 2.13 PPG against 1.55. The form guide was vindicated by the result. Fredrikstad (home/away splits) shipped 2 against a 1.03 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (hit), form (hit). A mixed scorecard — the data caught the broad shape of the game but not every market.
