Norrköping vs Rosenborg Champions League Match Preview And Prediction - July 21, 2016

Norrkoping are currently the 2nd most consistent and dominating team in the Swedish Allsvenskan league behind Malmo. This is the 1st shot at Champions League qualification and didn’t make the ideal start to their campaign last week in Norway. However, their domestic form at home is one to be envied – 7 games, 5 wins and 2 draws, making them undefeated in the league. But this is a different test for them, with a highly rated Rosenborg stopping them in their tracks.

Last week was a demolition job well done, with Rosenborg firmly brusing Norrkoping aside with the 3-1 victory at the Lerkendal Stadion. No goals came in the 1st half, but Kåre Ingebrigtsen must have given the half time team talk of his life as Rosenborg came out firing all cylinders to go 3-0 up within 20mins of the restart. At 3-0, Rosenborg were cruising but a lapse of concentration at the back allowed Sebastien Andersson to find the net for Norrkoping, reducing the aggregate deficit to 2 goals and allowing the Swedish team a consolation goal and glimmer of hope going into the return leg.

At home, Norrkoping score 2.86 goals per game on average, conceding exactly 1.00 goal. Rosenborg score few goals away with an average of 1.12 goals score per match but concede very few at 0.62. I believe both teams will find the net in this one, but I am expecting a low scoring game.

As a result, we see this game being a 1-1 Draw with odds of 11/2 and Norrkoping Double chance at 4/6 with bet365.

Head to head these 2 teams have only met this time last week, when Rosenborg beat Norrkoping 3-1 at home.

Norrkoping not lost at home this season: played 7, won 5, drawn 2, lost 1. Rosenborg drawn 4 of 8 games away and lost 1. Norrkoping score 2.86 goals a game at home in their domestic league and concede 1.00 while Rosenborg score 1.12 but concede 0.62.

No Norrkoping team news to take note of.

No Rosenborg teams news to report, fully fit squad and no suspensions.
