- Ham-Kam are winless in their last three home meetings with Fredrikstad FK (D1, L2).

- Ham-Kam have scored just eight goals in their six home Eliteserien 2025 games.
Tight and tense match expected
The hosts enter this game winless in their last two home Eliteserien 2025 matches (D1, L1) and currently sit 14th in the Eliteserien 2025 having taken just 13 points from 13 games. They have been hovering dangerously close to the bottom of the table, but new boss Thomas Myhre will be hoping to make an immediate impact by turning around this poor run.
Ham-Kam’s home record is a mirror of their league form, with two wins, two draws and two defeats in their opening six fixtures at Briskeby. They’ll need to be patient and can’t afford to get caught out in a chess match this Sunday, as the Ham-Kam vs Fredrikstad FK preview suggests, Fredrikstad FK have a tendency to lock down opponents and try to break them down when in possession.
Fredrikstad FK currently sits 8th in the Eliteserien 2025 table, having accumulated 21 points from 15 matches. Their form has been inconsistent and their away record has failed to mirror their home one in this campaign (W1, D2, L3). The visitors are coming off the back of a fantastic 4-2 win at home to Molde, followed up by a narrow 1-0 loss to Bodoe/Glimt, all of which makes this Ham-Kam vs Fredrikstad FK prediction even tougher to call.
Pivotal game in Eliteserien 2025
The contrast in style between these two sides may very well produce a classic chess game on Sunday, with both sides trying to unlock the other’s disciplined and organised defensive line. Fredrikstad are a little more flexible than Ham-Kam, who have a more rigid and conservative approach to games and prefer to keep things compact and in control of the tempo. According to our Ham-Kam vs Fredrikstad FK prediction, these tactical disparities could prove decisive in a match where every detail counts.
Fredrikstad have shown more of a willingness to join the attack and it looks as though boss Mikkjal Thomassen knows how to manipulate the momentum of a game, as was evident in the last match against Molde. He has done a great job since taking over in January 2023, blending organisation with the ability to be flexible and proactive when needed. The Ham-Kam vs Fredrikstad FK betting tips should consider Thomassen's adaptability and tactical nous.
Moses Mawa stands out for the home side, having scored two of his side’s 6 goals in their last 5 outings, he will be a big danger for the away side this weekend. For the travellers, Oskar Oehlenschlaeger is in good form and has scored two of his team’s last three goals. He is the top tackler and organiser of his team and is a danger on the break and in the offensive third.
Fredrikstad to nick it
The slightly better form of Fredrikstad FK in the league this season and their position in the Eliteserien 2025 suggests that they have the higher likelihood of victory in this match. The Ham-Kam vs Fredrikstad FK odds for the game reflect this, with the favourites priced at 2.25 and the host side at 2.90. Under 2.5 Goals is heavily priced at 1.10 for this one, so there will be a cagey game as these sides look to avoid defeat and secure momentum in the mid-table battle. This Ham-Kam vs Fredrikstad FK prediction indicates a closely fought contest with little to choose between the sides.
