Brann vs Viking (9 October 2026, Eliteserien): match facts, H2H and recent form

Brann host Viking in what promises to be a stark contrast of form, with the home side languishing in eighth place on 26 points from 20 matches (eight wins, two draws and ten losses, scoring 37 and conceding 31) while the visitors sit second with a commanding 47 points, having won 15, drawn two and lost three, boasting a 51‑20 goal difference. The gap of 21 points underscores the challenge for Brann, who will need to tighten up defensively against a Viking attack that has found the net at will all season. If the hosts can replicate the resilience that earned them two draws so far, they might at least dent Viking’s impressive run, but the odds heavily favor the high‑flying second‑placed side.
