Rosenborg take on the visitors Celtic at the Lerkendal Stadion in the second leg match of the UEFA Champions League second qualification round. The match will be played in Trondheim on Wednesday, August 1st. The first leg match ended with a 3-1 win for Celtic.
There is an ongoing break in the Eliteserien specially made for the Norwegian teams who represent the country on the European scene. However, this break did not help the Troll Children to prepare well for the first leg match against Celtic. Rosenborg have 33 points to their credit after 16 matches in their local league. In the first qualification round of UEFA Champions League the team beat Valur from Island with a big struggle (0-1, 3-1). In the first leg match against Celtic the Troll Children had been winning with a 1-0 score in the beginning but then conceded 3 goals. Rosenborg have had 10 home matches in 2018, won 6 of them, drew 3 time and lost once.

Football clubs from Scotland are still in their off-season while Celtic are battling to go through to the next round in Champions League. The Bhoys won every official match they`ve had this summer. First of all they had beat Alashkert in the first qualification round with a 3-0 score both in the first and in the second leg matches and then they beat Rosenborg with a 3-1 score. Celtic have been performing better in front of their home crowd than on the away side lately. In their last 10 away matches Celtic won 6 times, drew once and lost 3 times.
It`s worth noting that the teams have already faced each other in the last year`s Champions League qualification rounds and Celtic came off victorious back then (0-0, 1-0). The Celts have been looking much better lately than the Troll Children have so it is likely that they will go through to the next round.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 goals scored.
