📰 Team News: FK Haugesund

FK Haugesund boss Jostein Grindhaug doesn’t have any fitness concerns to speak of coming into this clash with a fully healthy squad to pick from.

We think that FKH may well opt for a 4-3-3 system, handing starts to Helge Sandvik, Fredrik Knudsen, Benjamin Tiedemann Hansen, Ulrik Fredriksen, Mikkel Desler, Christian Grindheim, Thore Pedersen, Bruno Leite, Kristoffer Velde, Benjamin Källman and Niklas Sandberg.

📋 Team News: Rosenborg BK

Rosenborg boss Eirik Horneland has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Samuel Adegbenro (Unknown Injury), Andreas Helmersen (Meniscal Injury) and André Hansen (Groin Injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

We’re of the thinking that Troillongan appear most likely to play in a 4-3-3 lineup, starting the game with Julian Faye Lund, Vegar Eggen Hedenstad, Gustav Valsvik, Even Hovland, Anders Trondsen, Kristoffer Zachariassen, Edvard Tagseth, Gjermund Åsen, Pål Andre Helland, Torgeir Børven and Emil Konradsen Ceide.

💡 Prediction

In our view, FK Haugesund will have a tough ask to see themselves scoring against this Rosenborg BK outfit who should do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.

We’re going for a hard-fought 0-1 win for Rosenborg BK at the end of the 90.

Hopefully it’s a good one.
