It's only six days since Tromsø played against Bodø / Glimt and the result was 1-1. What happens against Viking?

Insights:
  • Tromsø have won at least twice as many corners as they have conceded at home.
  • Viking have the most scored goals (17) in Eliteserien

Viking have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a NM Cup game only three days ago. That game was also an away game, at Rosseland. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
