Vålerenga have come here for an engaging game versus the home team Tromsø. Prepare for the game with this full Eliteserien preview!
- Tromsø have failed to keep a clean sheet in all their matches.
- Vålerenga haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
Vålerenga have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1700 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
It's no vacation for neither Tromsø nor Vålerenga as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Tromsø form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Tromsø's two home games in the Eliteserien so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Alfheim Stadion.
Tromsø travelled for their previous game, a trip to Jerv that ended 1-1. Jenssen (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.3/10. Jenssen hit one key pass and had 56 successful passes (of 65 total).
Preceding that match was the home game against Sarpsborg 08 that was lost 2-5.This is expected to be a close game, with Tromsø perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Tromsø as a small favourite), we find eight games. Tromsø has won two of these, drawn four and lost two.
Tromsø are traveling soon after this match as the Eliteserien match at Bodø / Glimt awaits in four days.
At Alfheim Stadion, Tromsø has the goal stats of 4-6 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Vålerenga form and stats
Things could have gone better for Vålerenga in their Eliteserien away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.
Two trips in a row for Vålerenga, whose manager Fagermo could celebrate last time after the win against Sandefjord. Attacker Dønnum got a player rating of 7.75 in the game. "Man of the match" Dønnum scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.
Before that, Vålerenga secured a home win against Jerv with the score 1-0.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Vålerenga playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were three Vålerenga wins, two draws and three defeats.
A quick return to home after this game, as Vålerenga are hosting HamKam in the Eliteserien only four days away.
