Brann will be looking to keep alive their hopes of winning the Norwegian top flight for the first time in over 27 years when they play host to Haugesund this weekend.
The hosts have done everything to win the Eliteserien in recent years but always come short. Eirik Horneland's side finished nine points behind winners Bodo/Glimt in second place in 2023 and are currently almost in the same position. However, the Firemen will take heart ahead of this weekend's game from the fact that they are the best home team in this division this season.
Haugesund meanwhile are in danger of getting relegated for the first time in more than 24 years. After managing only one win from their last six league games, Sancheev Manoharan’s side have dropped into the red zone, but they will be boasted by the fact that the lone win in that spell came on the road.
Brann vs FK Haugesund Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
Entertainment has been the major headline in the recent games of Brann. Including the humiliating 5-1 defeat to league leaders Bodo/Glimt last time out, the hosts have failed to keep a clean sheet in six of their last eight Eliteserien matches. Only one of those encounters ended with fewer than three goals.
The absence of a good defence is one of the major reasons Haugesund are battling with relegation. Sancheev Manoharan’s side do have the best defence of all the teams in the bottom five, but the Seagulls travel this weekend to the Brann Stadion with just two clean sheets from their last eleven matches.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

Brann team news
Brann head coach Sancheev Manoharan will be without the services of Sivert Heltne Nilsen this weekend due to suspension.
The midfielder is expected to serve a one match ban after he was dismissed for two yellows against Bodo/Glimt last weekend.
Nilsen’s absence may see Magnus Warming get a starting place in the engine room, but Sander Kartum and Ulrik Mathisen are also options.
Niklas Jensen Wassberg is set to miss this weekend’s game due to a knee injury, but the midfielder is the hosts’ only injury concern.
