Tippeligaen News: Rosenborg BK hosts third-place Tromsø IL this weekend

July 21, 2010 - Trondheim, Norway - epa02256714 Norwegian Rosenborg BK vs Linfield FC of Northern Ireland for a second round UEFA Champions League qualifying match at Lerkendal Stadium in Trondheim, Norway, Thursday evening July 21, 2010.

Table leaders Rosenborg and Tromsø, the best matchup in the Tippeligaen this weekend, should be an action packed event filled with goals as some of the league's top scorers square off.

30-year-old Norwegian international Steffen Iversen (14) and 30-year-old Swedish striker Rade Prica (11) have combined for 25 of Rosenborg's goals this year.

22-year-old Brazilian centre forward Kayke has 5 goals in only 8 league appearances for Tromsø.

Both Iversen and Kayke have also collected one hat trick each on the season.

Prediction: The home side seems to have the edge, although Tromsø could cause the table leaders some fits.

My guess -- Rosenborg 3-2 Tromsø
