Fredrikstad - Kristiansund BK

Fredrikstad welcome Kristiansund BK to Fredrikstad Stadion on Sunday for matchday 18 of the Eliteserien. The home side will be looking to reverse the fortunes of their last encounter, a 2-0 defeat to Kristiansund BK in the Eliteserien on 19 April 2026. Fredrikstad have struggled for consistency in recent weeks, suffering defeats to Start, Rosenborg, Bodoe/Glimt and Lillestroem, with only a single victory against Sandefjord to show for their efforts.

Kristiansund BK, meanwhile, have shown flashes of form, including a recent 2-1 win over Molde. However, they have also experienced losses to KFUM and Start, alongside a draw with Sarpsborg 08 and a heavy defeat to Rosenborg. The expected XIs for both teams suggest a midfield battle, with Fredrikstad's Oskar Oehlenschlaeger and Samuel Leach Holm facing off against Kristiansund BK's Heine Gikling Bruseth and Tobias Hammer Svendsen.
