Tromsoe welcome IK Start at Romsaa Arena, Tromsø on Sunday, Dec 6 at 5:00 PM in a Eliteserien fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Tromsoe come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). IK Start travel struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Despite playing at home, Tromsoe face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. IK Start have won 5 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.6 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Tromsoe a slight edge, but IK Start are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
