Kristiansund will be wanting a better result here after a 4-2 Eliteserien defeat last time out to SK Brann.
In that match, Kristiansund had 54% possession and 9 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. For Kristiansund, the goalscorers were Ruben Alte (30') and Mustapha Ubandoma (40'). At the other end, Brann got 13 attempts on goal with 8 on target. Bård Finne (4', 41') and Aune Heggebø (14', 22') scored for SK Brann.
It’s not been often in recent games where Kristiansund have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Kristiansund have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, leaking 8 goals along the way.
Their prior results show that Kristiansund:
- have not beaten Rosenborg BK in their last 5 league games.
- haven’t won at home in the past 3 league games.

In the game prior to this, Rosenborg BK drew 1-1 in the Eliteserien tie with KFUM Oslo.
In that game, Rosenborg BK managed 53% possession and 5 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Rosenborg BK was Marius Broholm (74'). At the other end, KFUM-Kameratene had 13 attempts on goal with 8 of them on target. Mame Mor Ndiaye (83') was the scorer for KFUM Oslo.
A tendency of at least one side getting a clean sheet in games featuring Rosenborg BK has become noticeable of late. A glance at their last 6 meetings reveals that it’s happened 5 times. During these clashes, opposing sides have managed a goal aggregate of 5 and Rosenborg BK have scored 7. We will have to see whether or not that trend will be sustained here.
Ahead of this clash, Rosenborg BK remain undefeated by Kristiansund when having played them away from home in the previous 2 league games.

Team News: Kristiansund
Max Williamsen (Cruciate ligament injury) and Michael Lansing (unknown injury) will not be able to play for Kristiansund manager Amund Skiri.
In our view, KBK will probably make use of the 4-3-3 system in the match featuring Serigne Mbaye, Ian Hoffmann, M. Berntsen Olsen, Dan Peter Ulvestad, Mikkel Rakneberg, Rezan Corlu, Wilfred George Igor, R. Kristensen Alte, David Tufekcic, S. Hestetun Kilen and Mustapha Isah.

Team News: Rosenborg BK
From a largely full-strength squad, there’s only a single fitness worry for the Rosenborg BK manager Alfred Johansson to contend with. Noah Sahsah (Knee injury) won’t be in action.
We’re of the thinking that Troillongan appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-3-3 system using Sander Tangvik, Erlend Dahl Reitan, M. Konradsen Ceide, U. Y. Jenssen, Adrian Pereira, Moustafa Zeidan, Ole Kristian Selnaes, Iver Fossum, Jesper Reitan-Sunde, Noah Holm and Ole Christian Saeter.
💭
Prediction
In our view, Kristiansund should have enough to find the net against this Rosenborg BK side, although one goal isn’t likely to be enough to give them the result that they want.
Therefore, we think that it’s going to be both teams to score in a 1-2 winning score for Rosenborg BK when the full-time whistle blows. We’ll have to see what happens.
