Rosenborg made a triumphant return to winning ways by defeating Valerenga 3-1 in their most recent match. They got off to a flying start, already leading 2-0 within the first 14 minutes of the game. Isak Thorvaldsson broke the deadlock in the 12th minute, while Jayden Nelson added a second just two minutes later. Andrj Ilic managed to pull one back for his side in the 31st minute, and there was a chance for Stefan Strandberg to level the score from the penalty spot, but he missed just two minutes into the second half. Ole Saeter sealed the victory with a goal in the 76th minute, ending the game at 3-1.

Before this much-needed win, Rosenborg had endured a five-game winless streak. As a result, they currently find themselves in the 10th position on the league table with 33 points from 26 games. They've scored 35 goals but conceded 42.

Molde

Molde suffered a significant setback in their previous match, enduring a heavy 4-1 defeat against Tromso. Their recent league form has been lackluster, with only one win in their last five games. Their performance across various competitions has been subpar, including a loss to Leverkusen.

The gap between them and the 3rd-placed Brann is significant, as Brann has 52 points, putting Molde 8 points behind as they aim to secure a higher position in the remaining fixtures.
