👉 Our prediction is: Rosenborg to win the 1st half

The various signs and statistics we have studied point to this being a one-sided affair, with the favoured Rosenborg likely coming out on top away from home. Rosenborg has simply been the superior team this season, whereas Start has struggled.

But for some added value, we recommend betting on Rosenborg to win the first half, which would bring a higher potential payout.

👉 Our prediction is: Start win or draw

The home team is usually a safe bet in the Double Chance market, and that is no different in the upcoming match. Our top tip is to bet a Start win or draw against Rosenborg.

Our analysis of Start points to them being the superior side, which is why they have a strong chance to win the match outright. And with the added benefit of needing only a draw at home against Rosenborg, their chances of cashing in the 1X Double Chance bet grow even stronger.
