Bayer 04 Leverkusen v Molde FK: Group H - UEFA Europa League 2023/24 — Tromso and Molde square off in the Eliteserien on Friday.

Tromso and Molde FK return to action in the Norwegian Eliteserien when they go head-to-head at the Alfheim Stadion on Friday (June 28). The two sides have had contrasting league campaigns, with Jorgen Vik’s men languishing at the bottom end of the standings.

Tromso picked up a morale-boosting result last weekend when they beat 10-man Sarpsborg 2-1 in a friendly at the Sarpsborg Stadion. After a three-week break, Vik’s side return to action in the Eliteserien, where they fell to a 2-1 loss to Lillestrom on June 2, which snapped their three-game unbeaten league run.

With 10 points from 11 matches, Tromso are 14th in the Eliteserien, one point above rock-bottom Sandefjord. Molde, meanwhile, returned to action on Friday with a comfortable 2-0 friendly victory over Odd BK.

Head coach Erling Moe will hope that the result can serve as a springboard for a fine run of form in the league, where they have struggled for consistency in recent weeks.

Molde, who have won just three of their last nine Eliteserien games, are fourth in the league table, six points adrift of first-placed Bodo/Glimt.
