Head-to-head statistics Rosenborg - Start

Rosenborg Team Overview
Rosenborg beat Fredrikstad 3-0 in their most recent Eliteserien match.
Rosenborg are unbeaten in seven consecutive Eliteserien matches and have won their last three away games by the same 3-0 scoreline. Even their exit from the Norwegian Cup did not derail them: the most recent of those wins, in Fredrikstad, came just three days later. Amin Chiakha has been the key player during this run. He scored twice in that match to take his tally to 17 goals - more than anyone else in the Eliteserien. The hosts cannot afford to relax, though. Rosenborg and Molde both have 43 points, but their rivals are third on goal difference. Lillestrøm are just one point behind.
Match Results: Rosenborg

Start Team Overview
Start lost 0-1 to Lillestrøm in their previous Eliteserien match. The hosts made more attacks - 113 to 84 - but were behind on shots (12-22) and shots on target (1-5).
Start’s away form has been their biggest problem: they have lost nine of their last ten away matches in the Eliteserien. Their attack has not helped either. Start have scored 26 goals this season - the joint-fewest in the league alongside Sandefjord. Even at home, conceding once was enough to leave them with nothing: on 1 November, they lost 0-1 to Lillestrøm after a corner and could not equalise late on. A week earlier, Start beat Sandefjord, but they have no other wins in their last five league matches.

Prediction for the 1st half
Rosenborg have led at half-time in seven consecutive home matches and have scored in the first half in each of their last 12 home games. We expect the hosts to be ahead at the break again. The bet is Rosenborg to win the first half.
Total Goals Prediction
Rosenborg have scored fewer than three goals in just one of their last seven matches. Start have conceded 28 goals in their last ten away games. The risk is that Rosenborg have not scored more than three goals against Start in eight consecutive head-to-head meetings, so there is no margin for error. We still expect the hosts to score at least three goals. The bet is Rosenborg Team Total Goals - Over 2.5.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm’s calculations, the top three scorelines are 2:0 (10.89%), 2:1 (9.32%) and 1:0 (8.78%). Of these, 2:0 has the highest probability.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Rosenborg have won by at least two goals in six of their last seven Eliteserien matches. The outsiders are vulnerable to a result like that: they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 12 consecutive away league matches. Start have also scored no more than one goal against Rosenborg in nine successive head-to-head meetings. We expect the league's top scorer, Amin Chiakha, and his teammates to secure another convincing win. Bet - Rosenborg - Handicap -1.5.
