Rosenborg-OB

The home team are out of the competition when they lost away agianst Brann in a match the 3-2 result does not reflect how the game was played. Rosenborg had three chances, they scored on two, defensive mistakes nearly ruining it for Brann. In the 2nd half there was only team on the pitch and Brann should have won with bigger figures than with only one goal margin.

Tomorrow the home team will field the same team against OB, with two injured players on the bench (Kvarme and Strand), at Brann it was close for the goalie sub to get some minutes on the midfield. The squad are very tired and have been very unmotivated throughout the whole RL campaign. Now they are out, and motivation will not be higher tomorrow. They will not last 90 minutes in this one. Playing in a hard fought battle three days ago, and no one to replace them when they need to, should be a huge advantage for OB.

OB need to win this one to be sure of continuing their possibillities for winning this league. Against Helsingborg (loss 0-1) they played on a pitch that were muddier than a pigpen. No chances for technical play and it was a tight one. Still OB created 4 to 5 100% chances, which is rather impressive looking at how the match went on. Have no info about the squad yet, but when reading the coaches statement about OBs ambitions an away win tomorrow should be heavily regarded.
