- HamKam Are Building Resilience: Unbeaten in five of their last six matches in regulation time, they’re starting to grind out consistent results.
- Marienlyst No Longer a Fortress: Stromsgodset have suffered four consecutive home defeats in the league, offering little to suggest a turnaround is imminent.
- Away Comfort for the Visitors: HamKam have avoided defeat in each of their last four competitive visits to Stromsgodset, and they’ll back themselves to do it again.
Best Bet for Stromsgodset vs HamKam
HamKam Double Chance (Win or Draw) | |
11/10 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning Stromsgodset’s poor home record and low morale make them vulnerable. With HamKam growing in confidence and unbeaten in recent visits here, backing them to avoid defeat makes complete tactical sense. |
There’s always a fine line in football between a blip and a full-blown crisis. For Stromsgodset, that line is starting to fade rapidly, and this Saturday at the Marienlyst Stadion, they find themselves staring into the sort of pressure that makes or breaks a season. The visit of HamKam, a side only marginally better off in the table but vastly more confident, comes at precisely the wrong time for a Stromsgodset outfit that has looked out of ideas, energy, and organisation in recent weeks.
It’s not just the fact that they’ve lost three games on the spin—it’s how they’ve lost them. Defeats against Kristiansund, Bryne, and Sandefjord have exposed frailties that go far beyond bad luck or a few poor performances. There’s an identity crisis developing in Jørgen Isnes’s side, and that’s the sort of thing you can’t just patch over with a tactical tweak. They’ve not won a home match all season. Zero from four in their own backyard. It’s becoming less of a bad spell and more of a haunted house narrative.
By contrast, HamKam come into the match with their tails up. A vital 2-1 win over Molde last weekend hasn’t just injected points into their season—it’s brought belief. Jakob Stein Michelsen seems to have found a formula that, while not explosive, is reliable enough to keep them out of the mire. And crucially, they’ve shown they can handle the trip to Marienlyst. Not once in their last four visits have they come away with nothing.

Best Bet for Stromsgodset vs HamKam: HamKam Double Chance (Win or Draw)
At BettingTips4You.com, we don’t believe in muddying the waters with a barrage of options. One match, one tip. That’s how we keep our edge. For this particular contest, our top selection is HamKam in the double chance market—backing them to either win or grab a draw. It’s not just the most logical play based on form, but also the most valuable from a strategic punting perspective.
Why You Should Back HamKam to Avoid Defeat
Let’s break it down. Stromsgodset are currently in a tailspin. They’ve lost five of their last six in the league and haven’t collected a single point at home this season. Their performances have been timid, lacking urgency, and frankly, riddled with soft goals. The backline looks rattled every time an opponent swings in a half-decent ball, and the midfield is failing to impose itself. Even when they’ve managed to score, as they did against Sandefjord, they’ve still found a way to lose. Confidence? Nowhere to be found.
On the flip side, HamKam are quietly getting the job done. A win against Molde isn’t something to shrug off—it’s the sort of result that galvanises a squad. They’ve now gone unbeaten in three of their last four league matches, and defensively, they’ve looked miles more composed than their hosts. Players like Snorre Strand Nilsen are starting to step up—his first goal of the season couldn’t have come at a better time.
There’s also the psychological edge. HamKam haven’t lost at this venue in their last four competitive trips, and that matters. The fear factor? It’s not just missing—it’s gone completely. They’ll come into this believing they can win, while Stromsgodset are probably just hoping not to implode again.
As BettingTips4You.com expert Graham Hartshorn puts it:
18+. Play Safe. From 00:01 on 18.10.2022. £30 bonus. New customers only. Minimum £10 stake on odds of 1/2 (1.5) or greater on sportsbook (excluding Virtual markets). Further terms apply. #Ad. 18+Only, gambleaware.org |
“When one side’s leaking confidence and the other is climbing steadily, it’s not just form—it’s momentum. HamKam have the belief and the blueprint to leave with at least a point.”
Predicted Scoreline: Stromsgodset 1-2 HamKam
This doesn’t feel like a game where the hosts are going to suddenly rediscover themselves. Expect them to fight, maybe even score, but HamKam’s balance and momentum should see them nick a valuable away win.
