The first leg of th🥂e Norway Eliteserien - Relegation Final will 💫take center stage when Kristiansund battle Vålerenga at the Kristiansund Stadion on Wednesday. Below are previews, H2H, expert betting tips, and odds.

After finishing fourth in the Norwegian League's second division during the regular season, Kristiansund earned their way to this stage with a penalty shootout victory over Bryne and a 4-2 victory over Kongsvinger, who f🅘inished in third place. They will now face a team with top-class experience in the last stage of qualifying for the top division. With seven victories in their past eight games and a recent playoff run under their belt, Kristiansund should be riding high heading into this 2-legged battle.

Although Vålerenga failed to secure an automatic promotion, their determination to escape relegation is admirable giꦍven that they were undefeated in their last three league games.
