REF’s picks

Rosenborg usually start matches on the front foot and should establish a lead by the interval against porous opposition. Their first-half control has been a hallmark of their recent three-goal victories.

1. 1Rosenborg have dominated the opening 45 minutes in several recent fixtures.
2. 2Start's backline often cracks early under sustained pressure from dynamic attacks.
3. 3A cautious defensive setup by the visitors could frustrate the hosts initially and keep the score level at the break.
