Brann will be looking to register back to back league wins for the first time in May when they host Molde on Thursday evening.
The pride of Bergen were eliminated from the Norwegian Cup by Bryne in the third round a fortnight ago and have not really recovered from that setback. Freyr Alexandersson’s men have won just one of their last three league games, with the other two being draws. However, the hosts can still go level with league leaders Viking if they beat Molde this week.
Meanwhile, Molde have been a shadow of themselves since winning the Eliteserien in 2022. In fact, the Town of Roses have gone from back-to-back fifth-place finishes in the last two seasons to becoming relegation candidates. Per-Mathias Høgmo’s side are just two points above the relegation zone and go into Thursday’s game having lost their last three matches.
Brann vs Molde Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
While Brann have kept two clean sheets in their last three league games, they have always struggled defensively against Molde in the past, so both teams are likely to score. Indeed, the visitors have scored at least once in each of their last eight head-to-head meetings with Brann, including their 2-1 win back in November and both teams scored in three of the last four.
Most of Brann's recent games at this ground have also been very entertaining. Two of the last three produced four or more goals, while only one of the last eight saw fewer than three goals.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Brann vs Molde prediction: 2-1

Brann team news
Brann didn’t suffer any injuries in their 2–0 win over Haugesund last time out, so it wouldn’t be surprising if head coach Freyr Alexandersson sticks with the same starting XI.
Aune Heggebø’s goal in that match took his tally to five for the season, and he is expected to lead the line alongside Finne this week.
Niklas Jensen Wassberg, Sakarias Opsahl, Martin Hellan and Denzel De Roeve have all been ruled out of Thursday’s game due to injury.
