KFUM vs Rosenborg Prediction
KFUM's improved displays in the last few weeks have seen them closing in on the continental spots in the table. This is remarkable, considering that Kåffa are competing in the top flight for the first time in their history. Johannes Moesgaard's side were victorious in the reverse fixture as away underdogs and they will be looking to do the double over their more illustrious hosts.
Rosenborg raced into an early lead when facing KFUM at home but ended up losing the game. They are slight underdogs this time around according to the bookmakers but are just two points behind their hosts.
KFUM have struggled at home this term and this has been the sole blot on what has otherwise been a stellar campaign. Both sides like to play on the front foot and this could be a keenly-contested encounter. We are backing the spoils to be shared in a high-scoring stalemate.
