If you’ve been looking for the scoop on Shamrock vs Molde, you’re in the right place. This rivalry has been heating up over the last few seasons, with both sides pulling off surprise wins and dramatic moments. Below we break down the recent form, key players, and the most likely line‑ups for the next encounter.
In the last five meetings, Shamrock have taken two wins, Molde have won two, and one match ended in a draw. The goal average sits at 1.8 per game, so you can expect a few strikes. Shamrock’s home advantage has mattered – they’ve kept a clean sheet in three of their four home games, while Molde’s away record shows they concede more than they score.
Both clubs have a similar possession rate, hovering around 53‑55%. The biggest win came when Molde smashed Shamrock 4‑1 last season, a result that still haunts the Shamrock fans. Since then, Shamrock have tightened up defensively, conceding just once in the following two matches.
For Shamrock, the midfield engine is Jordan Lee. He’s been delivering 0.6 assists per game and covers a lot of ground. If he can link up with striker Mike Dunn, who’s netted six in the last ten, Shamrock will have a real chance to break through Molde’s back line.
Molde’s main threat comes from winger Emil Nord. His pace on the flank has produced three goals and two assists in the past month. Pair him with the experienced striker Lars Petrovic, who scores from tight angles, and Molde could be the team that scores the decisive goal.
Both coaches also love set‑pieces. Expect a few corners and free‑kick opportunities – especially since Shamrock’s centre‑back Chris Hayes is a proven header of the ball.
So, who will come out on top? It often comes down to who controls the midfield and takes advantage of those set‑piece chances. Keep an eye on the first 15 minutes – that’s when most games are decided.
