Sarpsborg will be keen to build on their home form and upset the calculations of Eliteserien leaders Viking as the teams meet on matchday 13 at Sarpsborg Stadion on Sunday. This match between the 7th-placed Sarpsborg and the 1st-placed ‘Dark Blues’ is a test of the visiting team’s title credentials, which is where our money and prediction are!
With 14 points (W4, D2, L5), Sarpsborg start this round five points behind European qualification spots but only three above the relegation zone. Viking’s 27 points from ten games (W9, L1) give them a two-point lead over Tromso, who have played three matches more.
A 3-1 loss to Lillestrom in an off-season friendly was a reminder of Sarpsborg’s challenge in improving their recent run. The hosts have lost five of their last eight matches (W3), although two of those wins have come in a row before the break. Those two have come home, and Sarpsborg will feel confident of at least stretching the leaders.
Viking drew their off-season friendly last week, but that takes nothing away from a run of ten consecutive wins before the break. Nine of those have come in the league as they continue to lead the points tally. Four wins from their last four league trips underlines their title credentials, which is bad news for the home fans.

Our Sarpsborg 08 vs Viking FK Prediction
The Viking FK were one of the teams who didn’t want the league to break, seeing as they won nine matches in a row. That included four wins in a row on the road, although their only league defeat of the season came away from home. Does that give a ray of hope to Sarpsborg to upset the odds here? The hosts have won their last two home league games, but extending that run could be difficult.
Viking will go hard to continue their stronghold at the top, so our Sarpsborg 08 vs Viking FK prediction is Viking FK wins.
