Eliteserien
These teams last met in the NM Cup in early March, with KFUM Oslo winning 2:1 in a super close game, which could have easily ended in a draw. Looking further back, over the past ten H2H games, KFUM Oslo won three times, and Tromso have won four times.
When it comes to the number of goals, four of the past ten H2H games ended with three or more goals, while both teams scored in seven of those.
KFUM Oslo team overview
KFUM Oslo entered this season after finishing 12th the previous season. Despite winning only 35 points in 30 rounds, they still did not come too close to relegation. This year, they haven't been good either. After 10 rounds, they won just 11 points and are sitting in 10th place. That 10th spot looks pretty good, but they are, in fact, only one point away from the danger zone. They have generally struggled on the road, which is why these home games are super important.
Central defender Fredrik Berglie served his one-game suspension against Rosenborg and will be available. On the other hand, Ayoub Aleesami, Jonas Hjorth, Moussa Njie, Amin Nouri, and Mansour Sinyan should remain sidelined with their injuries.

Tromso team overview
Tromso had a very good last season, finishing 3rd and securing a spot in the Europa League Qualifiers. This year, The Boys had an amazing start and were at the top for the first several rounds. Unfortunately, they slowed since late April, winning only once in five games. Even though they are in 2nd place at the moment with 24 points, they played two games more than most of the teams in the upper part of the league table.
For the upcoming match, coach Jørgen Vik should have no new injuries. However, Jesper Grundt and Viktor Ekblom, who missed all games this season, should remain sidelined with their injuries.

Prediction
KFUM Oslo have been inconsistent this season, result-wise, both at home and on the road. However, more importantly for our bet, they consistently played low-scoring matches at home, and were amazing defensively, keeping a clean sheet in three out of five games. Because of a good defense, they went under 2.5 goals in four of five games - 80%.
Tromso have struggled in recent games, winning just once in the past five games. They are a team that scores a lot more at home than on the road, averaging around 0.75 goals per game less there.
Also, six of the past nine H2H games ended with fewer than three goals - 67%. Considering the trend in the previous H2H games and all the above, we believe that an under 2.5 goals bet is the safest option for this Eliteserien tie.
3 Reasons why we should see fewer than three goals
- KFUM Oslo went under 2.5 goals in four out of five league home games
- Tromso averages only one goal per game on the road
- Six of the past nine H2H games ended with fewer than three goals
