Strindheim are returning here after visiting NTNUI in a 3. Division game and winning with a 4-2 scoreline. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Preceding that match was a NM Cup defeat to Orkla (2-4).
