Wednesday, at 18:00, Rosenborg receives Linfield’s reply to the second leg of the Preliminary Round 1 of the UEFA Champions League. Without batch problems, the hosts are great favorites on Lerkendal, after winning the first hand without too much effort, score 2-0 in Belfast.
The Mansa tour had no history and was decided by the goals scored by Jensen (22) and Soderlund (70). Finally, the Norwegians could rest a few titles, seeing Linfield as being far removed from the level required for a “remontada”. Rosenborg jumped 15 times at the gate in the first hand, managing to score only 5 of the executions. Superior to all statistics, the Nordic band has no emotions about relegation but will fight for a prestigious victory and return.
Rosenborg also has an important physical advantage because the Norwegian league is in full swing as opposed to the Northern Ireland championship. In the final stages, Rosenborg went “watch” and defeated Viking (5-1), Ranheim (3-2) and Kristiansund (1-0). So the black and white offensive is working on an excellent level, and that will be seen again.
Linfield showed his limits in the lost amateurs in front of Dinamo (0-2), Motherwell (0-3) and St. Louis. Johnstone (2-4), so we are not allowed to witness a surprise in Trondheim. In the three direct duels disputed by the two clubs over time, Linfield is unmarked.
PREDICTION: Over 2,5 goals @ 1,38
