Rosenborg hosts Valerenga in round 11 of Norwegian Eliteserien. The match will be played on Sunday, June 16th at Lerkendal Stadion (Trondheim)
The Norwegian champion of the last season will play in the Champions League qualifications soon, and the forces will be thrown right there. But Rosenborg has big troubles in the national championship. Intermediate 12th place, and only eight goals scored in ten rounds. With such a result, there is nothing to hope for.
The club may even fight for survival. Eventually, the situation will get better: two victories in the championship and one in the cup seem to give grounds for optimism, but it is difficult to call Rosenborg a favorite in the confrontation with Valerenga now. Most likely, the match will be too stubborn and not scoring.

In the same ten rounds, the visitors scored... twice more than the champion did. It is very unexpected and pleasant start of the season. Valerenga lost two matches in three starting rounds, but afterward, it showed an unbeaten streak, only losing 0-3 at home to Lillestrom in the last round. In general, Delia's squad looks good away. The team will not play in the European Cups, and it will allow it to focus on the local championship, where there are good chances to compete for a place in the top three.
Rosenborg did not seem to have had problems with Valerenga in head-to-head matches before, but the current situation hardly gives cause for optimism. There are problems in defense, and the hosts concede in almost every round. Given the performance of the visitors, it would be quite logical that Valerenga will score its “stock” goal. I doubt that the hosts will manage to hammer their opponent.
Prediction for the match: Valerenga to win with +1.0 handicap
