Can Stabæk beat Tromsø in Nadderud Stadion clash?

It's no vacation for neither Stabæk nor Tromsø 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.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Tromsø have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-3-9 (win-draw-loss) from 16 matches. Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1700 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
