Rosenborg Team Overview
Rosenborg are having a tough season, and the club's troubles extend beyond the pitch: a new manager came in during the summer, and now the chairman is leaving too. The team has been led by Icelandic manager Freyr Alexandersson since the start of July, with Alexander Tettey having served as caretaker before him. Things have improved under the new manager: in late July Rosenborg thrashed Fredrikstad at home (4:0), and in the previous round they won away at Lillestrøm (2:0). Amin Chiakhaoui has scored eight goals and is joint top scorer in the Eliteserien. At home, Rosenborg have scored in 18 of their last 19 Eliteserien matches.

Editor's Pick
Not many goals are expected here, and four separate trends point to that. In Viking's last 11 away matches in the Eliteserien, both teams combined for fewer than four goals; the same goes for the last seven league matches between these sides. Viking themselves have been modest in away head-to-head matches: they have scored more than once in a single game just once in 11 consecutive Eliteserien rounds. Rosenborg in this matchup don't get going either - they have not scored more than two in the last five head-to-head Eliteserien meetings. We expect a cautious game and a low scoreline. The bet is total under 3.5. Predicted score - 2:1.
