Rosenborg vs Hearts Predictions

• Rosenborg have won four straight league games ahead of this clash
• However, the hosts shipped four goals to Crusaders in the last round
• Rosenborg have managed one clean sheet across their last 10 matches

Tough timing for Hearts

Landing a side placed eighth in the Eliteserien looked good for Hearts, but in recent weeks Rosenborg have got their act together and they’ll be a real test for the Premiership side.

The hosts have won four straight league games and they were 2-1 victors at Haugesund at the weekend. They’ve discovered a real scoring touch of late and after dispensing of Crusaders in the last round of qualifying, they’ll be hoping to get the better of Scottish opposition.

Hearts can cause problems

While the visitors meet a side in form, there’s good reason for them to be confident going forward in this clash. Rosenborg did concede twice in both meetings with Northern Irish side Crusaders, which suggests their defence isn’t too well set up.

The hosts have managed one clean sheet across their last 10 games in all competitions, while Hearts started their season well with a 2-0 win at St Johnstone. The Jambos should have a tough time shutting down a Rosenborg side who are on a high, but the hosts are open enough to back both teams to score.
