These are hard days for Tippeligaen teams because they have to play three times this week. Tromsø has got some lucky, they played at home three days ago and they will be at home again. They have played four home matches so far, won thrice and played a draw. I can say TIL deserved these results, the last clash (which ended of 2-2 draw against Sarpsborg) was incredible, the hosts took the lead in the 91th minute but then Sarpsborg equalized. Tromsø has not injury problems and suspensions for this game.

Viking showed awful performance so far and collected only six points. Regular defensive midfielder Sokolowski and important attacker Ingelsten are still injured like ex-Tromsø midfielder Knarvik and the offensive players are out of form. Young talent Berisha shows good performance but Bjarnason and Nevland are playing under their really skills and they owes thanks a lot to their goalie, Jarstein.

Tromsø is the favourite to win this clash in my opinion, their condition is better and they are strong at home and plays well usually. Viking use natural grass at their stadium while TIL use artifical pitch, it will be more advantage. The visitors are coming in poor form and they have to travel more than 1300 Km, Tromsø need points after the unlucky draw against Sarpsborg and they will get it, I think so.
