On the 3rd of October, in this week 21 match, Kristiansund will host Rosenborg at Kristiansund Stadion in a clash of these two evenly matched Eliteserien teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 10 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. Kristiansund is fresh off their 1-3 loss against Brann. Ulvestad scored the first goal for Brann on an own goal in the 19th minute, but Liridon Kalludra got the equalizer for Kristiansund in the 42nd minute. With 18 points in their last 10 matches Kristiansund should be reasonably happy with their performance, while rosenborg sits at 3rd place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 3-1 win against Mjøndalen. Stefano Vecchia scored the first goal for Rosenborg in the 26th minute, but Kent Eriksen got the equalizer for Mjøndalen in the 54th minute. Rosenborg is on a hot streak lately, having won 7 of their last 10 matches.
In their last match on Jul 10th, Rosenborg won by a score of 1 to 0. Dino Islamović struck first for Rosenborg in the 15th minute on a feed from Carlo Holse, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Kristiansund was frustrated by Rosenborg’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Rosenborg ended the match with the shutout victory.
Rosenborg is glad to have Stefano Vecchia in top form. In the last five matches the attacker has scored 7 goals. Kristiansund hasn’t been successful in netting any goals lately. Their top scorers in the last 5 matches are Arbnor Mucolli and Moses Dramwi Mawa, and they each have 1 goal.
