Rosenborg v Rapid Wien predictions: 1x2 preview

Rosenborg needs the cash to balance their books, Norwegian sides usually perform well in these scenarios and they should be regarded as solid favorites for this tie anyway just on experience and home strength. Rapid Wien might also show up with a depleted squad. I call the home win.

Betsson offers 1.70 for the home win. The odds have been bet down a bit, pretty much due to the reasons stated above. With the €25 Risk Free Bet I think it is still worth a small bet.

Rosenborg v Rapid Wien predictions: Asian Handicap preview

Rosenborg is fairly compact at home (especially in Europe), it takes quite a bit to break them down. This Austrian side has been relatively weak away, and I can't see them get much out of this even if they will have many of their crazy fans sining their hearts out for them on the stands. Between them, in Rosenborg's last 6 at home, and Rapid's last 6 away there were zero draws. Obviously that doesn't make me so keen on 1.25-1.28 for Rosenborg, draw no bet. The Rosenborg -1 looks more interesting to me. It does give some cushion for a one goal win for Rosenborg. I do think they have a 2+ goal superiority in them tonight. The Rosenborg -1 is priced at 2.17 at Pinnacle Sports. 

Rosenborg v Rapid Wien predictions: Total Goals preview

Six out of the combined eight matches these teams have played in the Europa League has gone over 2.5. I am fairly sure Rosenborg will manage to score at least one if they are tuned in for the task (they should be). Rapid Wien I am not so sure about. This makes it a little trickier. The over has to be favorite, but the question is just how much? I think the 1.72 at offer with Betsson in combination with that €25 risk free bet is good value for the Over 2.5. That's my call for this one.
