Match begins: 11:00 (UTC)
Venue: TUIL Arena (2192 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Tromsdalen are in the 9th position while the guesting Fløya worry at 14th.

Tromsdalen have less rest than Fløya in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a 2. Division game only zero days ago. This match was also played here at TUIL Arena. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Fløya have had more rest.

There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.

Tromsdalen form and stats

The story so far in the 2. Division for Tromsdalen at their home stadium (TUIL Arena) is 1 win, 1 draw and 1 defeat. Two home wins in a row for Tromsdalen bring valid hopes of a third.

Tromsdalen's last game was hosting Fløya (placed 14th) and winning 6-0. 1-1 away at Moss before that.

As indicated by the result mentioned above, Tromsdalen played a great game against Fløya and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.

Tromsdalen are huge favourites in this match and it would be a big surprise if they fail to leave TUIL Arena with a victory. The home side has been in this situation before, with huge expectations of a win. nine earlier games are comparable to this one, and Tromsdalen has won five times, drawn one and lost three. Sports bettors who like handicap betting will like to know that Tromsdalen has won by at least two goals four times when in this position.

The Tromsdalen fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 3 matches. Tromsdalen have conceded 4 in these home matches.

Fløya form and stats

No 2. Division points yet away for Fløya, from their first 3 matches. Fløya are generally in trouble as the list of consecutive losses is growing into an ugly monster. Regardless of home/away, the visitors have now lost seven in a row. It's been 44 weeks since they last avoided defeat. (The Tromsø II game.) Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Fløya's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Fløya might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Alta proved too strong as Fløya slumped to a 1-4 defeat in front of their own fans at Fløyabanen. Prior to that match, the Fløya manager M. Johnsen faced defeat when travelling to Kjelsås and losing 1-4.

Fløya are huge outsiders in this game. Running a check in our games database we found 17 matches where they were as big outsiders as an away team. Results were seven wins, one draw and nine defeats. Of the defeats, five games were lost by at least two goals margin.

The visitors have scored 2 goals from 3 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. There are big problems for the Fløya defense as they have conceded 11 goals in 3 away games.

Head 2 Head

Tromsdalen and Fløya have met before this season: Tromsdalen - Fløya 6-0. Numbers for the last six meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Tromsdalen, one draw and one win for Fløya. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: one game.
