Sarpsborg 08 vs Haugesund Prediction 06.07.2025 | Eliteserien

• Competition: Norway - Eliteserien
• Date: Sunday, 6th, July 2025
• Kickoff: 13:30 UK / 14.30 CEST
• Venue: Sarpsborg Stadion (Sarpsborg)

Sarpsborg 08 will aim to stay in the hunt for European qualification as they welcome bottom-placed Haugesund in Saturday’s Eliteserien clash.

Christian Michelsen’s side reignited their European push in dramatic fashion by pulling off a stunning upset over powerhouse Bodo/Glimt at the Aspmyra Stadion with a 2-1 scoreline, as Tebo Uchenna’s last-gasp winner sealed the deal and propelled them into seventh place.

In contrast, Haugesund’s winless run dragged on, but they at least managed to scrape a second point onto the board by digging deep with a rare display of defensive steel to frustrate Kristiansund in a goalless stalemate, though they remain rooted to the bottom and face an uphill battle to avoid the drop.

Sarpsborg 08 vs Haugesund Betting Tips : AH1 (-1.5)

A nightmare run of results since the beginning of the campaign has turned Haugesund into the punching bag of the Eliteserien, as they remain the only team still chasing a first win and have already tasted defeat in 10 of their opening 12 fixtures. A glance at their away record paints a grim picture for the Eliteserien basement dwellers, as they stand alone in having lost every single road game this season while conceding 16 goals across six outings, making it hard to envision them troubling Sunday’s hosts in their current shape. While Sarpsborg 08 have found it hard to hit top gear in front of their own fans compared to their away performances, the visit of struggling Haugesund presents a prime chance to regain momentum in the push for continental qualification and finally reward the home crowd who have seen just a single triumph from five early fixtures. Given Haugesund’s torrid form and their habit of conceding goals in bunches, Sarpsborg 08 will view any result other than three points as both disappointing and emotionally deflating.
