Predictions & Betting Tips

Two unbeatens meet in crucial top four clash

The Fredrikstad FK vs Rosenborg BK prediction is a hot topic as Fredrikstad FK are currently in fourth place in the Eliteserien 2025 table with 16 points from 7 games, just 2 points behind second-place Rosenborg BK who have played 1 game more. Both teams come into the game unbeaten and looking to gain an advantage in the top four, but which style of play – discipline or dynamism – will prevail in Norway this season? For this reason, our Fredrikstad FK vs Rosenborg BK preview highlights the importance of this fixture in the context of the league. Mikkjal Thomassen has instilled a tactical discipline upon his Fredrikstad FK charges since taking over as manager in 2023 and they are very much a home team now, taking maximum points in all 4 of their 2025 home league matches to date. They have scored 9 and conceded 1 – an average of 2.25 goals per game scored and 0.25 goals per match conceded – which makes them a formidable team on their own patch. Jacob Storevik is the last line of their fortress at Stadion, making key saves when the ball has found its way through their well-organised lines. Stian Stray Molde has the sharpness and movement to unlock even the best defences and Sondre Sørløkk has been a driving force from deep in midfield.

Rosenborg’s Roskilders may just edge it

When looking for the Fredrikstad FK vs Rosenborg BK prediction, it is important to note that Rosenborg are more of an expansive, progressive side that likes to dominate possession and play an up-tempo 4-3-3 system with a high press in the opposition half. The Rosenborg BK have looked better than their league position suggests and Robin Shroot has brought an intensity to their pressing game that has made them more dangerous in the final third. Emil Frederiksen provides the creativity in the center of the field and his ability to unlock compact defences like Fredrikstad’s makes him a key player in this clash. Rosenborg BK are yet to win in their last two visits to Fredrikstad FK, so this will be a tough test for them. But Marius Broholm has chipped in with 2 goals in their past 5 league games and Rosenborg BK can cause enough problems to grab a narrow win. Erlend Reitan is a leader and stabilizer at the back and has been a key component of Rosenborg BK’s unbeaten away run in Eliteserien 2025. The bookmakers have Rosenborg BK as 2.43 favorites here, which is a fair reflection of their chance of success against Fredrikstad FK at 2.95. But we are going with a draw in the Draw no bet market because these two teams are equally matched, as shown by the last three head-to-head meetings in all comps, which have seen one win each and one draw.
