Start has got winning chance against any teams at home ground. They hosted Strømsgodset, Viking and Aalesund and they beat the first two opponents by 5-1 and 4-0. Godset goalkeeper received a red card in the 8th minute but I have no doubt Start would have won even in case if Larsen would have remained on the pitch, other victory was deserved, too. Last week Start suffered a defeat from Aalesund, both teams were equal. Start had some problems into the team recently but I think the clash against champions Rosenborg will be very important and shake up them. Last year RBK won by 3-2 at Kristiansand despite the hosts played better, it’s time to revenge! All important players are fit.

Rosenborg has got terrible season start with only two victories, last week one of worst traveller Haugesund beat them, RBK had only a single clear chance, totally deserved away win. They played with Molde before this and won by 2-0 despite Molde pressured sometimes, RBK took the lead and scored once again on the end of the match, Molde deserved a draw in my opinion. Rosenborg plays well sometimes but we can not see the great attacking football what they are used last year. Central defender J. I. Høiland is still injured, his replacement Lago is not worse.

I think Start will be back on the track and they can beat Rosenborg, this +1/4 asian looks like a joke.
