Rosenborg vs D. Zagreb Prediction & Betting tips
Final spurt in qualifying for the Champions League. Six places are still vacant. Six teams can hope to play in the concert of the great and above all to get to the financial flesh pots of the premier class. The play-off first leg in the past week was at least once an indication of which teams we can expect in the group stage.
For example, Dinamo Zagreb beat Rosenborg Trondheim 2-0 at home last week. This is a heavy mortgage for the Norwegian champion. The chances are likely after this result for Rosenborg maybe 20 percent. However, the moose have won all three home games in the current qualifiers.
However, Trondheim has never looked so bad after the first leg. However, there is much to suggest that in the second leg between Rosenborg Trondheim and Dinamo Zagreb we will be predicting a home win. It will be difficult to say if this will be enough to qualify for the group stage of the Champions League.
The chance is still there. With an early goal the Norwegian champion would have all possibilities again.
However, you can hardly afford a goal. If Zagreb scores a goal, Trondheim would have to score at least four goals. That is not completely excluded, but very unlikely. Nevertheless, in the match between Rosenborg Trondheim and Dinamo Zagreb we tend to a tip for a home win.
The Croats will do everything in their power not to let any drama arise in this match. We await Dinamo with a very compact defense and needle-stick attacks. If one of them leads to success, then good night Rosenborg. The kick-off for the return leg in the playoffs to the Champions League in the Lerkendal Stadium will take place on 27.08.2019 at 20:00.
Rosenborg Trondheim:
So good for Rosenborg Trondheim this season is not. In the Eliteserien it looks like it will be very difficult to defend the title. 19 out of 30 matchdays have been completed and the reigning champion is only in fourth place. Eight points are missing to the front runner Molde FK.
It would be all the better if Rosenborg could move into the group stage of the Champions League. For this, a victory with at least two goals difference against Zagreb is urgently needed, with penalties even with three hits difference. The chances for the Norwegian champion are therefore not very good.
The home strength should be helpful but to complete this mission successfully. In qualifying for the premier class Trondheim has won all three home games. Overall, Rosenborg has made the last seven competitive games in the Lerkendal Stadium all victorious. Therefore, before the kick-off between Rosenborg Trondheim and Dinamo Zagreb, the odds of a home win should be our first choice.
Last weekend RBK had a home win again. Stabaek IF were in Trondheim and even took the lead 1-0 early. Before the break Alexander Söderlund could equalize first. After the change, Samuel Adegbenro and Pal Andre Helland brought Rosenborg forward 3-1. The goal to 3: 2-final in the final phase disturbed only a little.
With such a defensive performance, it will not be enough for Zagreb against progress. Coach Eirik Horneland makes it clear again that Dinamo has put his team in the first leg before major problems.
Nevertheless, he will play full on victory. Only when his team gets a creamy day will it be enough.
All in all, it is expected that the Norwegian champions will face a similar, if not identical, formation compared to the first leg. For the new striker Björn Johnsen, who was loaned by AZ Alkmaar, a deployment comes on Tuesday still too early. In addition, Nicklas Bendtner no longer belongs to the squad, but apparently has not found a new employer.
Dinamo Zagreb:
Much better than Dinamo Zagreb you could not have come into a new season. The Croatian champion shows in an impressive early form. Nenad Bjelica’s team was already able to seal the first title when they celebrated a 1-0 victory against HNK Rijeka in the Croatian Supercup.
Dinamo Zagreb are back in the lead in Croatian HNL with 13 points from five games. Most of the pursuers have already completed one more game and still can not show the points leader’s score. Overall, Dinamo Zagreb is still undefeated in the eleven competitive matches of the current season.
This record suggests that in the second leg between Rosenborg Trondheim and Dinamo Zagreb a prediction on the double chance X2 would be quite justified. Last weekend was no match for the Croatian champions on the program. With the backing of the Croatian Association, the match against Rijeka was postponed to mid-December.
So Zagreb could concentrate fully on the return match in Trondheim. The last match was the first leg in the last week, when Zagreb prevailed 2-0. Bruno Petkovic and Miroslav Orsic got the final score in half an hour. However, Rosenborg was not the two goals worse.
Therefore, Nenad Bjelica warns before the return match, especially before the home strength of the Norwegians.
He sees his team, however, very well prepared and will not be content to manage the lead in Trondheim from the first leg. He makes it clear that Dinamo Zagreb will also play for victory in Norway.
In terms of personnel, there is no reason for Dinamo Zagreb to make any changes to the victorious eleven from the previous week. Maybe Nenad Bjelica will tactically change his team slightly, hinting that he’s offensive and does not want to rest on the 2-0 lead from the first leg.
