Expected score: Trondheim W 28-32 Levanger W
Trondheim W travel to face Levanger W in the 1. Division Women on 8 November 2026. The hosts occupy fifth place with 10 points from seven matches, while Trondheim sit twelfth with just 3 points from eight. The gap in the standings reflects a substantial difference in recent performance that warrants careful examination before backing either side.
Team form
Trondheim W
Levanger have won four of their last five matches. They beat Haslum 31-21 away, defeated Kjelsas 33-31 at home, and secured victories over Baekkelaget (27-24) and Stavanger (40-25). Their sole recent setback came against Aker, a narrow 24-25 home loss. Over these five games, Levanger averaged 31.0 goals for and 25.2 against, indicating both offensive consistency and defensive solidity. They have demonstrated the ability to win close contests and to dominate weaker opponents.
Levanger W
Trondheim's recent record is troubling. They have lost four of their last five outings. Defeats to Volda (28-33), Baekkelaget (28-41), and Asane (29-30) show a pattern of conceding heavily, while their sole point came from a 31-31 draw with Gjovik. Most concerning is their defensive fragility: they conceded 35.6 goals per game over this span and managed only 30.4 in attack. The 28-41 loss to Baekkelaget was particularly severe. This form suggests structural problems that a single match is unlikely to resolve.
Head-to-head
No previous meetings between these sides are recorded in the available data.
Key factors
The data points strongly in Levanger's favour. First, the league standings: Levanger's 10 points from seven matches against Trondheim's 3 from eight is not marginal. Second, recent trajectory: Levanger are climbing, Trondheim are falling. Third, the defensive contrast is stark. Levanger concede 25.2 per game recently; Trondheim concede 35.6. Fourth, Levanger's attack (31.0 per game) substantially outpaces Trondheim's (30.4). Trondheim will need to reverse a clear downward trend to take anything from this fixture. Levanger, conversely, should be confident in their current method.
Prediction
The model favours Levanger to win. The underlying data supports this decisively. Levanger's superior league position, winning record, tighter defence, and consistent recent form all point to an away victory. Trondheim have not demonstrated the form or defensive discipline required to compete at this level currently. While handball permits draws and upsets, the weight of evidence—standing, goals conceded, and recent results—aligns with a Levanger success. A draw is possible but unlikely given Levanger's recent trajectory and Trondheim's struggles.
Levanger are clear favourites and should be backed to win. The data does not support complacency: Trondheim have shown they can score (they averaged 30.4 goals in their last five), so a competitive match is likely. However, Levanger's defensive record and league position make them the strong choice. Caution is warranted only in that any single match carries variance, but the fundamentals favour the hosts decisively.
