tromso vs molde

Tromsø take on Molde in a crucial Eliteserien Round 12 match at Romssa Arena on July 5, 2025, with both sides entering the fixture in contrasting form[4]. Tromsø, managed by Jorgen Vik, are currently one of the league’s in-form teams, riding a six-match winning streak and sitting fourth in the standings with 22 points from 11 games—just one point behind third-placed Rosenborg[1]. Their recent victory came over Fredrikstad, secured by a ninth-minute goal from Ieltsin Camoes[1].

Molde, meanwhile, have struggled, suffering a 3-2 home defeat to KFUM Oslo in their last outing. They’ve lost six of their last eight competitive matches, including a 4-3 defeat in the NM Cup to Kristiansund, leaving them 10th in the table, level on points with 11th-placed Vålerenga but behind Tromsø by eight points[1][6]. Despite their poor form, Molde have claimed victory in their last two meetings against Tromsø—a 5-3 home win and a 2-0 away win[3][4]. In the last ten head-to-head encounters, Molde have six wins, Tromsø three, and one ended in a draw[3].

Historically, these fixtures produce plenty of goals, with 41 scored across their last ten meetings[1]. Tromsø’s current form marks a turnaround from the start of the season, having failed to win any of their first four games, but now unbeaten in their last six and scoring nine goals in their last five matches[1][4].

For Molde, Magnus Wolff Eikrem is a key creative player, having generated the most big chances in their squad this season[4]. Tromsø, boosted by recent defensive solidity and attacking efficiency, will look to leverage home advantage against a Molde side desperate to halt their slide down the table.

Predicted lineups and live updates are available closer to kickoff, with the official starting elevens confirmed approximately one hour before the match[4][5][6].
