Fredrikstad FK vs Rosenborg Prediction & Betting Tips - Eliteserien

Prediction published on 27/07/2024, 03:48  by Daniel Ngulu in Football Predictions

Two sides that haven't had a lot going for them lately, Rosenborg and Fredrikstad, are set to meet in Eliteserien this Saturday. Fifth-placed Fredrikstad will host 13th placed Rosenborg, both eying some stability. Below is our look at the numbers that define the prediction we have for this match.

The hosts have avoided defeat in the last three meetings with Rosenborg and will feel confident coming into this game. It is just over a month since these two sides faced off, with the encounter ending 1-1.

Fredrikstad scored a stoppage time equalizer for a result that ended their two-game winning streak against Rosenborg. They come here straight from a 1-0 win against HamKam to end a winless streak of five matches. Fredrikstad are, however, unbeaten in six matches at home, keeping clean sheets in four.

Crowd trouble saw Rosenborg’s last game at home to Lillestrom stopped twice before finally being suspended. That was just a highlight of the visitors’ troubles this season. The once Eliteserien giants are struggling in the lower end of the standings.

After 14 matches, they are just three points above the automatic relegation spot. Among the teams outside the relegation zone, Rosenborg have conceded the most goals and they have just five wins. Their recent league run reads two wins in the last 10 matches; they lost six times in that period.

In seven of the last 10 league matches, Rosenborg conceded two or more goals. A look at their away form paints a grimmer picture, having managed just a point from a possible 15 in the last five outings.
