Rosenborg BK vs Bryne FK Best odds and tips

Rosenborg BK have made a solid start to their Eliteserien 2025 campaign and currently sit 5th in the table with 10 points from 4 matches. Robin Shroot’s side have been solid in the main, but they have also shown the ability to turn on the style at times, especially when captain Markus Henriksen has been able to dictate the tempo from the middle of the park. Rosenborg have beaten Fredrikstad FK (1-0), Valerenga IF Oslo (0-2) and Molde FK (0-0) in their last 3 fixtures and they look to be in good shape. Shroot has been in charge since January 2024 and has impressed with his team’s ability to play a pro-active, possession-based game, with their players well organised in pressing in numbers and creating width in the final third. Bryne FK are a different proposition altogether, preferring to be disciplined at the back, compact in the middle third and to transition quickly to exploit the spaces left by opponents when on the counter.

Bryne FK have had a mixed start to their Eliteserien 2025 campaign and currently sit 12th in the table with just 3 points from their opening 4 games. Ole Kevin Knappen’s side have lost 3 of their last 5 fixtures, although they did pick up a vital 3-1 win at home to FK Haugesund last time out, following a narrow 3-2 defeat away to SK Brann Bergen. Bryne are winless in their last 2 away games, failing to pick up a single point in the process. Knappen has managed Bryne FK since January 2022. Duarte Moreira is the danger man for Bryne, having scored 3 of his side’s 6 goals in their last 5 fixtures, but he will have a hard time breaking down Rosenborg’s defence on Sunday.

There is no real history between these two sides, but Rosenborg are the bigger club and the bookies have them as clear favourites at 1.50 for this fixture, with Bryne available at a distant 6.00 to win. The stats and recent form favour a Rosenborg win here and we’re happy to take that at such a short price, especially as Bryne have been so poor on the road this season. Rosenborg have averaged 0.50 goals scored and 0.00 goals conceded at home in Eliteserien 2025, so a ‘Rosenborg BK clean sheet’ bet appeals, especially as Bryne have averaged 2.50 goals conceded and 1.50 goals scored on the road. This fixture will be a clash of styles, with Rosenborg looking to control the tempo and territory, while Bryne will look to absorb pressure and counter-attack if they can. Striker Noah Holm will be a constant threat for Rosenborg, as he has the pace and strength to make runs in behind and the vision to link up play.
