Tromso IL
- Tromso IL have won 2, drawn 1 and lost 1 at home this term, averaging 2.25 goals scored and 0.75 goals conceded per game.
- The hosts come into this clash on the back of a two-game winning streak that represents a mini hot streak following a slip at FC Hradec Kralove.
CFR 1907 Cluj
- The Romanians have also lost their last 2, that 5-0 home humbling against Tromso followed by a 3-1 league defeat at Rapid Bucuresti.
- Antonio Folha's men have a mixed recent form line of 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats, but their back line looks particularly vulnerable.
Head-to-Head
This looks like the perfect home win opportunity for Tromso IL as they come in on the form and after a 5-0 away win over Cluj.
Key Players
Isak Dahlqvist has been Tromso's spark in Europe with 3 goals in 1 match , while Heine Aasen Larsen has 5 of the team's last 15 goals in their last 5 games .
Betting Insights
- This tie looks like Tromso IL's to lose after the Norwegians blew Cluj away 5-0 on the Romanians' home turf in UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 last week, and the bookmakers have them as the clear favorites to finish the job at 1.79 with CFR 1907 set as 4.53 underdogs ahead of Thursday's return fixture.
- Their 4-2-3-1/4-3-4-3 structure is geared towards stretching the field and running the channels, so they should keep Cluj pinned back on Thursday.
- Over 2.5 goals is 1.7 here, and Both Teams To Score - Yes is available at 1.65 - both of which are appealing, but as the hosts are the bookmakers' choice we feel a Tromso win and both teams to get on the board is the best bet on the live odds at Romssa Arena.
Prediction
Cluj will go for the upset, and they have enough about them to make a match of it, but we aren't inclined to wager on the visitors here, having seen Tromso's game speed last week and taken their overall form and home stats into account.
