European chase intensifies as resurgent Rosenborg visit Brann
Separated by just one point in the table, both sides are desperate to close the narrow gap on the Eliteserien European places.
Brann enter this clash sitting 9th on 19 points, just two points off the European spots with 15 games remaining. They arrive with mixed momentum, having secured a morale-boosting 5-3 aggregate win over Universitate Cluj in the Conference League qualifiers, though they suffered a defeat in their most recent Eliteserien outing. With a crucial European tie against Apollon looming just three days after this fixture, squad rotation could be a factor.
Rosenborg have undergone a dramatic transformation since sacking their coach, winning three consecutive matches while scoring three or more goals in each. Now 10th on 18 points, they are only three points adrift of the European places and possess a game in hand over Brann. Their recent 4-0 demolition of Fredrikstad highlights a side playing with newfound offensive freedom.
