Rosenborg vs. Lillestrom in round 12 of the Norwegian Tippeligaen, Monday 9 June.
It can be said that Rosenborg is in crisis at the start of this season. They never recovered after losing the title to Stromsgodset last year and now they occupy only the 7th place in the standings … form is also very bad with 2 draws and 1 loss in the last 3 games. Rosenborg did not play better at home either, 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. The hosts have big problems in their defense and it will not be so easy for them to recover because also they don’t have the same quality as in the past. Rosenborg also lost to second league side Ranheim in the Cup 3 days ago so that makes it 4 consecutive matches without a win.
Rosenborg lineup: Lund Hansen – Svensson, Strandberg, Reginiussen, Skjelvik – Jensen, Berntsen – Mikkelsen, Chibuike, Pedersen – Nielsen

Lillestrom is a better team than last year when they only finished on the 10th place in the standings. The visitors are currently on the 5th place and on the back of a 5-1 victory last round. Lillestrom is in very good form and playing good football, losing just 1 game from the last 10; and that was vs. the league leaders and the best team in Norway, Molde. Also Lillestrom lost just once on the road this season, early in the campaign vs. Brann.
Lillestrom lineup: Origi – Gabrielsen, Odegaard, Kippe, Ringstad – Lundemo, Andersson – Moen, Palmason, Fofana – Hoiland
If this game does not scream “upset”, I don’t know what game does. There are all the required circumstances for Lillestrom to get a result at Rosenborg. The home team has a little bit more quality but that is the only thing they have, and it’s not like their players are so much bettet. Lillestrom has played very well organized football on the road, good defense, good tactics and I think they have every chance to take at least one point from their more famous opponents. My tip will be x2. For sure the odds are not fair and they are dropping on Lillestrom. Correct score prediction: Rosenborg – Lillestrom 1-1.
