- Molde have won five, drawn one and lost two of their eight Eliteserien 2026 home games, scoring 2.25 goals per game and conceding an average of 1.12 on home soil.
- Molde's last two results typify their recent form - they drew 3-3 at home to Sarpsborg 08 in a wild game and were then beaten 2-1 away to Kristiansund BK, in a game they should have won.
Tromsø IL

- Tromsø IL have won three of their last five and two of their last two.
- Tromsø have a sharp away record of four wins, two draws and one defeat from seven matches, and they have only conceded ten goals on their travels.
- Tromsø have just blasted Aalesunds FK 6-2 away in Eliteserien 2026 and crushed CFR 1907 Cluj 5-0 away in UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026, so they are a team in form.
Head-to-Head
- Molde have won three of the last five meetings between these two teams, while Tromsø have taken two with no draws recorded.
- Molde have not won in their last two meetings at Aker Stadion and Tromsø got the better of them when they met three months ago in this Eliteserien 2026 campaign, winning 2-0 at home.
Key Players
- Heine Aasen Larsen (Tromsø) - number ten, who has scored five of their 15 goals in the last five games and looks lethal in transition.
- Emil Breivik (Molde) - has provided four assists in Molde's last five Eliteserien 2026 matches and is their chief creator at the moment, helping to set the tempo in the final third.
Betting Insights
- The home side are the slight favorites at 2.25, with the visitors available at a bigger price of 2.9 and the draw at 3.55.
- Both teams to score (BTTS) comes in at 1.5 and over 2.5 goals is set at 1.65, which suggests an open, end-to-end game.
Prediction
The goals might flow if both are confident, but the draw looks like a realistic option here as well and, although Molde are the favorites, Tromsø will give them a tough game in what could be a classic derby clash.
