Viking - Tromsoe

Viking enter this matchday 12 clash at Lyse Arena aiming to build on a productive run in the Eliteserien, having recently secured a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Fredrikstad. While the hosts will be without the suspended Kristoffer Askildsen, their attacking rhythm remains a significant threat as they prepare to face Tromsoe on 25 October 2026. The expected XI for the home side will look to exploit the space left by a Tromsoe defense that has struggled for consistency in recent weeks.

Tromsoe arrive in search of a spark following consecutive draws against KFUM and Fredrikstad. The visitors face a difficult task as they must contend with the absence of the suspended Leon Hien while dealing with a Viking side that has been prolific in league play, including a notable 8-1 win against Kristiansund BK in September. The two sides last met in the Eliteserien in October 2025, where Viking claimed a 3-1 victory.
