Rosenborg take on the visitors Dundalk at “Lerkendal Stadion” in the second-leg match of the 1/4 stage of the Qualification to the UEFA Champions League 2017/2018. The game will be played in Trondheim on Wednesday, July 19th. The first-leg clash ended with 1:1 draw.
Rosenborg have not been beaten across five recent encounters of the season getting three victories and two draws in them. The Norwegian Eliteserien is underway and after 17 rounds “Troillongan” take the lead in the standings with 35 points gained. The Norwegian club battled on equal with the hosts in the first-leg match in Ireland and 1:1 score is a good evidence of it. In 2017 Rosenborg conducted nine encounters at the home ground resulting in six triumphs, two draws and a single loss. The side won last three games with 11:2 aggregated score.

In their turn, Dundalk have not been broken since the 2nd of June across six recent clashes of the season. Like in Norway, the Ireland’s Premier Division is in midstream and after 22 matchdays Dundalk sit on the second place in the table with 46 points gained, being 15 points behind the leading Cork City. In 2017 the Irish club participated in 11 encounters on the road getting seven victories and four defeats in them. It should be noted that Dundalk’s away winning series counts for five clashes already, in which they scored 15 goals for with not a single goal conceded.
Last week’s fight in Ireland demonstrated that the teams are approximately of the same level. Therefore, I expect a tough battle with minimum goal attempts and scored goals on Wednesday.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
