Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there isn't an obvious winner in this fixture, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that Tromsø and Sarpsborg will score at least a couple of goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Jørgen Vik or Even Sel has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.20 equating to approximately a 79% probability.
