It seems likely that Troillongan may well opt for a 4-3-3 formation in the match, handing starts to Sander Tangvik, Adrian Pereira, M. Konradsen Ceide, Tomas Nemcik, U. Y. Jenssen, Marius Broholm, Santeri Vaeaenaenen, Iver Fossum, Noah Holm, Dino Islamovic and Emil Konradsen Ceide.

Fredrikstad FK boss Andreas Hagen has some current player fitness concerns. Rocco Shein (unknown injury) and Sigurd Kvile (Back injury) are not able to play.

We are inclined to think that Aristokratene seem likely to begin the game with a 3-5-2 system, starting Jonathan Fischer, Brage Skaret, Ulrik Fredriksen, Fallou Fall, Daniel Eid, O. Oehlenschlaeger, Maxwell Woledzi, Patrick Metcalfe, Simen Rafn, Emil Holten and H. Langaas Skogvold.

When taking all factors into account, Rosenborg BK will most probably create enough chances to score more than one when they meet Fredrikstad FK, who might well find it a difficult task scoring a goal of their own.

We reckon that it will be a comfortable 2-0 margin for Rosenborg BK at the conclusion of the game.
