Tromsdalen vs Rosenborg Prediction 07.05.2025 | NM Cup

• Competition: Norway - NM Cup
• Date: Wednesday, 7th, May 2025
• Kickoff: 17:00 UK / 18.00 CEST
• Venue: TUIL arena (Tromso)

Joint-record holders Rosenborg travel to third-tier Tromsdalen at TUIL Arena, aiming to reach the NM-Cup last 16 for the first time in three seasons.

Having brushed aside Ulfstind with ease 3-0 before ruthlessly putting five past Sortland in a dominant attacking showcase, Tromsdalen enter this third-round tie oozing confidence as they prepare to lock horns with elite-tier heavyweights.

Blocking their path is the formidable Rosenborg outfit, boasting a joint-record 12 triumphs in this tournament’s storied history, but their trophy cabinet has remained untouched for seven years now, a surprising stretch for a club with such a glittering legacy.

Tromsdalen vs Rosenborg Betting Tips : BTTS

It’s as clear as daylight that Rosenborg step into this clash as overwhelming favourites and that tag should be justified on the pitch, but it would be foolish to assume Tromsdalen will roll over especially with the backing of a passionate home crowd acting as their twelfth man. Despite competing in Norway’s third tier, Tromsdalen’s blistering start to the season has turned heads and strongly hints at their intent to bounce straight back to the OBOS-ligaen, having come out on top in all but one of their opening seven competitive fixtures, including two emphatic wins in the NM Cup. They might not have faced a challenge as demanding as Wednesday’s, but TUIL are more than capable of flexing their attacking muscles given their explosive final-third execution and an impressive record of netting three or more in five of their seven games thus far, so they certainly won’t be intimidated by Rosenborg. Rosenborg have looked unstoppable since the campaign kicked off, especially in the domestic cup where they demolished Rindal 11-1 before brushing aside Strindheim with ease in the second round, so they’ll be brimming with belief that they can extend their ruthless run in the competition while drawing extra fire from the memory of a 7-1 thrashing they handed Tromsdalen in this tournament a decade ago. The disparity in overall strength is clear, but with both sides having displayed fluid offensive patterns, it’s fair to anticipate a goal-laden clash at TUIL Arena where Rosenborg should have more firepower to keep their journey alive.
