Competition: Norway 2. Division

Match begins: 13:00 (UTC)
Venue: Islandsbotn Kunstgress (1250 seats)

Struggling Senja will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Grorud in the upcoming league round. It’s 13th vs 2nd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Grorud have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1600 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
