Our prediction for this Norway Eliteserien match:
Sarpsborg Stadion will host Friday’s Eliteserien game between Sarpsborg 08 and Rosenborg, the two teams who defeated Haugesund and Odd respectively at the weekend. The hosts did well to put an end to their three-game losing run in the national championship, but they will have a big fish to fry against Rosenborg. Experienced forward Jo Inge Berget is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring a brace against Haugesund, while midfielder Bruno Leite is back from suspension.
The Troillongan, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 4-2 loss to Viking, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence. Rosenborg, though, are not considered good travellers, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on draw. There are no fresh injury concerns in the away team ahead of the trip to Sarpsborg, but Jonathan Augustinsson remains in the treatment room.
