Molde vs Rosenborg prediction, preview, team news and more | Eliteserien 2024 

Molde welcome Rosenborg to Aker Stadion for an Eliteserien clash on Saturday (May 11th). The home side are coming off a 4-2 comeback victory over Sarpsborg at the same venue in the Norwegian Cup round-of-16 in midweek.

They were behind at the break courtesy of Peter Reinhardsen's 33rd-minute strike but were level through Kristian Eriksen three minutes after the break. Sondre Orjasaeter restored the visitors' lead a minute later.

But Anders Hagelskjaer, Magnus Eikrem and Eirik Hestad all scored to help their side book a quarterfinal date with Lillestrom after Orjasaeter was sent off in the 65th minute.

Erling Moe's side will turn their focus back to the league where their last game came in a 3-1 defeat away to Sandefjord.

Rosenborg, meanwhile, fell to a 3-0 defeat away to Brann in their last outing. Ole Blomberg, Aune Heggebo and Niklas Castro all scored to guide their side to victory.

The loss left them in ninth spot in the table, having garnered nine points from six games. Molde are third with 13 points to their name.
