Title-chasing Viking host Tromso in top-four Eliteserien clash
Defending champions Viking seek crucial points in a tight title race as fourth-placed Tromso arrive determined to secure Conference League qualification with seven games remaining.
Viking sit second in the Eliteserien on 56 points, level with the league leaders with seven fixtures left on the calendar. The Stavanger outfit carry fierce momentum into the weekend having taken four wins and a draw from their last five league outings, most recently overcoming Fredrikstad 3-2 on home soil following an authoritative 2-0 away victory over Brann.
Tromso travel south holding fourth spot on 40 points, currently occupying the last of the Conference League places. Their recent form has been mixed, registering just one victory in five after a 1-1 away draw with Fredrikstad and a high-scoring 3-2 home win over Ham-Kam, meaning every point is vital to fend off the chasing pack.
