This could be an interesting match as Strømmen have their presumed home advantage while Tromsø are ahead 25 points in the Obos-Ligaen table.

Insights:
  • Strømmen has the fewest matches under the total-line (10) in Obos-Ligaen
  • Tromsø has the the best goal difference (+28) in Obos-Ligaen

Strømmen have less rest than Tromsø in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Obos-Ligaen game only three days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Stjørdals-Blink, was also a home game here at Strømmen Stadion. The away team is better rested.

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.

Strømmen are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Happy, happy days for Tromsø who are already winners of the Obos-Ligaen. This could affect their motivation.
