Fredrikstad vs Strømsgodset prediction 25.07.2025 | Eliteserien

• Competition: Eliteserien
• Date: 25th July 2025
• Kick-off: 18:00 UK / 19:00 CEST
• Venue: Nye Fredrikstad Stadion

Strømsgodset will be looking to keep their hopes of avoiding relegation from the Norwegian top flight alive when they play away against Fredrikstad this week.

The visitors' last Eliteserien match was also an away game with a visit to Molde last Saturday. Dag-Eilev Fagermo’s team once again failed to keep a clean sheet, losing 4:1. They have now lost each of their last nine games, conceding 25 goals while scoring only six.

Meanwhile, Fredrikstad are not only 18 points ahead of Strømsgodset but also have the better recent form. Andreas Hagen’s team have lost only one of their last four league matches — a run that includes a 4:2 win over 2022 Champions Molde. Nevertheless, the Aristocrats will be concerned ahead of Friday’s game given that they lost each of their last two meetings with Stromsgodset.

Fredrikstad vs Strømsgodset Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals

While the visitors have only averaged just over a goal per game when playing away in the Eliteserien this season, all seven of their matches have produced at least three goals.

Fredrikstad have not kept a clean sheet since the second week of May, when they beat KFUM 1:0 on this pitch. The Aristocrats are now without a clean sheet in ten games, with an average of three goals scored per game during the four away Eliteserien fixtures played in that period.

Meetings between Fredrikstad and Strømsgodset at this stadium are also known for being entertaining. The last three alone produced a total of 13 goals, with bets on over 2.5 goals winning on all three occasions.
