Top Three Predictions and Betting Tips for Elfsborg vs Molde

Bookmaker Ratings prediction one: Double Chance draw or Molde to win – 1.55

Bookmaker Ratings prediction two: Under 3 goals – 1.53

Bookmaker Ratings prediction three: Correct score 1-1 – 5.80

Draw or Molde to Win

There is an 80% chance for Molde to repeat their win of the first leg according to the statistics since they won eight of their last ten fixtures. In addition, a draw has the same possibility as an Elfsborg win which is 30%.

Under 3 Goals

Despite the fact that both teams’ matches in their respective domestic leagues are high-scoring games, we think this match will be the opposite. Molde will defend relentlessly as they have done in their last ten fixtures conceding on average one goal per game.

Correct Score 1-1

The scenario of this match will be Elfsborg attacking early on and Molde relying on counterattacks to score and disrupt their host’s plans. As a result, we see a 1-1 final score very possible which is also the favorite correct score with the bookies.

Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for Elfsborg vs Molde

Elfsborg are left with very hard work to do in the return leg and that is to win by four goals something they haven’t done in nine matches. Moreover, the last time Elfsborg won in Europe by a four-goal margin was back in 2015 when they beat FC Lahti of Finland by 5-0.

This is the first time Elfsborg are playing in Europe since 2015 when they last were eliminated from the Europa League by Odd of Norway. Obviously, coach Jimmy Thelin needs his team to be at their best on all fronts and especially in front of the goal where they are averaging 2.25 goals per match at home.

Molde on the other hand will feel they did their job at the Molde Stadion in the first leg and took a huge step towards the UCL qualification’s semi-final. It must be noted that the MFK have not lost in 28 games with over a one-goal margin and in fact, lost just twice in the process.

Moreover, Molde’s worst defeat on the road in Europe was against Arsenal in the 2020/21 Europa League group stage. Conceding one goal per game in their last ten matches will make coach Erling Moe confident of his defense who also have four clean sheets in their last six games.

Elfsborg vs Molde Prediction

Elfsborg with their backs on the wall have no other choice than to attack early on to take control of the game. Molde meanwhile will be relaxed and even take the match to a draw. As a result, we think a double chance of a draw or an away win will be the most probable outcome on Thursday.
