Kristiansund
LLWLWL
Following on from a losing effort in their last game against Vålerenga in Eliteserien action, Kristiansund will be hoping to turn things around here.
In that match, Kristiansund had 47% possession and 12 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. For their opponents, Valerenga had 10 attempts at goal with 2 on target. Vinicius Nogueira (72') and Elias Sørensen (90') scored for Vålerenga.
The stats don’t lie, and Kristiansund have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 12 goals in all. In defence, Kristiansund have been far from perfect. Nonetheless, we must now wait to see whether that trend shall persist in this game or not.

Team News: Rosenborg BK
It doesn’t get much better regarding selection, with just the sole fitness concern for the Rosenborg BK manager Alfred Johansson to be concerned about thanks to an otherwise robust group. Noah Sahsah (Knee injury) misses out.

Prediction
We believe that Rosenborg BK are likely to be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.
Conversely, Kristiansund are also probably going to find it difficult to make a breakthrough but we can see them being dangerous at times.
We’re therefore expecting to see a controlled 3-1 victory for Rosenborg BK when all’s said and done.
