Rosenborg vs Ham-Kam: Rosenborg to win

Rosenborg's 2.0 expected goals face Ham‑Kam's 1.1, with the model giving a 58.2% chance of a home win. The recent form and head‑to‑head suggest the Norwegian giants should edge it.

Both clubs come in with contrasting recent form: Rosenborg have won four of their last five league games, while Ham‑Kam have managed just one win in the same span. The disparity in results sets up a clear advantage for the home side.

Lars's Verdict

Strong
Rosenborg to win Won Strong lean Strong · clear advantage

The model rates Rosenborg's win probability at 58.2%, the highest single‑outcome likelihood among the three options.

Show the maths
Rosenborg's expected goals of 2.0 exceed Ham‑Kam's 1.1, creating a 0.9 xG margin. This gap pushes the model's win probability to 58.2%, while the draw sits at 21.4% and the away win at 20.4%. The over‑2.5 goal probability of 59.9% also aligns with Rosenborg's scoring edge, confirming a high likelihood of a home victory.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Lost 57.7% model probability

With Rosenborg averaging 2.0 expected goals and Ham-Kam averaging 1.1, the model gives a 57.7% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 42.3% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Rosenborg 2.0, Ham-Kam 1.1) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 57.7% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 42.3% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Won 59.9% model probability

Combined expected goals of 3.1 (Rosenborg 2.0 + Ham-Kam 1.1) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 59.9% chance against 40.1% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Rosenborg 2.0 + Ham-Kam 1.1 = 3.1 combined): 59.9% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 40.1% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Rosenborg at 58.2%, the draw at 21.4%, and Ham-Kam at 20.4% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 9.9% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Form Guide — Last 5

Rosenborg

WWLWW

Rosenborg's recent run includes a 3-0 away win at Start and a 4-0 home victory over Fredrikstad, showing they can dominate both on the road and at home. Their only loss, 2-3 at Brann, came against a strong side, but the subsequent wins (2-0 at Lillestrom and 2-1 at Viking) illustrate a consistent goal threat, supporting a win pick.

Ham-Kam

LLWDL

Ham‑Kam's form features a 3-0 away win over Valerenga, but is otherwise poor, with 0-3 defeats at Bodo/Glimt and Brann and a 0-1 loss at Sarpsborg 08. Even their 1-1 home draw with Aalesund failed to generate goals, underscoring limited attacking output and reinforcing the expectation of a Rosenborg win.

Head-to-Head

In the last five meetings, Rosenborg have three wins (2-0, 2-0, 1-0) and two losses (4-0, 3-0), indicating a recent edge despite occasional setbacks, which supports the home win prediction.
