Ventspils hosts Rosenborg in the quarterfinals of the Europa League qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, September 17th at Ventspils Olimpiskais stadions (Ventspils)
The Latvian club is considered an obvious underdog in this confrontation, even though it plays at home. The team of the Moldovan specialist Frunza beat the Moldavian club Dynamo-Auto with great difficulty in the first qualifying round, and it was a real underdog. Ventspils is approaching the match with the Norwegian grandee in a bad mood, as the hosts lost to Riga in a very important championship match at home (0-2). Ventspils plays according to the 4-3-3 scheme, and the team will count on counterattacks in the upcoming match.

The Norwegian champion of 2019 started this season very weakly. There have been many changes in Rosenborg, and the Trolls did not start playing right away in the championship. Now Age Hareide's men are in 4th place, and they are unlikely to defend their title - there is an 18-point gap to Bode/Glimt. Nevertheless, Rosenborg scores a lot, and the attack represented by Adegbenro, Zachariassen and Borven works effectively, although there is no order in defense. The team uses a 4-2-3-1 system, and it will choose an attacking style of the game.
The teams played their last head-to-head match in the qualifiers for the tournament, which was called the UEFA Cup. Rosenborg left no chances for its opponent (6-0 and 4-1), although those matches have nothing to do with the current ones. However, the balance of power in the confrontation has not changed. Due to the higher class of players, as well as the power of the attacking line, Rosenborg should sweep the modest Latvian club out of its way without any problems. And the Norwegians will probably advance to the next round of the Europa League qualification.
Prediction for the match: Rosenborg to win
