ODD Ballklubb host Sandefjord in the Norwegian Cup. Both clubs have shown a fair mix of results this season, with Sandefjord playing in the Eliteserien and ODD a level below in the 1. Division.
This tie brings together sides from different divisions, and they've met plenty of times down the years across cup, league and friendly fixtures. How that history and the gap in level play out here is still open.

A long history between these two
These clubs have met 20 times in the data available, going back to 2017, across Eliteserien, cup competitions and friendlies. Results have gone both ways fairly evenly over that stretch.

| Eliteserien | ODD Ballklubb | Sandefjord | 25.05.2022 | 0-1 |
The most recent meeting was a friendly in March 2025, which Sandefjord won 2-0 away from home. Before that, their last Eliteserien meeting in November 2024 also went 1-0 to Sandefjord.
Sandefjord have had the better of the last couple of meetings, though a cup tie a tier apart is a different test.

A cup tie across two divisions
This is a Norwegian Cup fixture pitting a second-tier side against a top-flight one. ODD get home advantage, but Sandefjord arrive with a season of Eliteserien football behind them.
Cup ties like this can be unpredictable precisely because the level gap doesn't always show up on the pitch, and neither side's domestic form gives a strong signal either way.

With no market to weigh up and the evidence pointing in different directions, we're happy to sit this one out rather than force a pick.
Sandefjord have shaded the recent head-to-head meetings, and their Eliteserien status counts for something, but ODD have been more productive in their own league this season.
