Flint

Sandefjord have displayed overwhelming attacking strength in cup competition, underscored by their 15-0 away victory against Eidanger. Their past head-to-head encounter at Flint resulted in a convincing 5-1 win, while Flint have shown defensive frailties in fixtures where they conceded multiple goals against SF Grei, Lokomotiv Oslo, and IF Ready. The clear gulf in competitive level across all recent fixtures points to Sandefjord securing progression within regular time.

Both teams have established patterns of high-scoring scorelines in cup football. Sandefjord demonstrated their attacking capability with 15 goals against Eidanger and 3 against Start, while also being involved in a five-goal match against Bodo/Glimt. Flint have consistently featured in open encounters, as evidenced by matches finishing 4-3, 5-5, and 1-5 in their recent record. The sole head-to-head meeting between these clubs produced six goals in a 5-1 result. Because the offensive output and defensive vulnerabilities on display point strongly toward a match with multiple goals, the evidence materially supports clearing the 2.5 line rather than settling on the lower 1.5 total.
