Looking forward to seeing Lamela play, and hoping to see Holtby and Eriksen play also.

Generally quite genial, though they have this delsuion that they´re the only people on earth who can drink. Yeah... They can drink all right, theough not so much getting home without an ambualnce... Oh, and until recently people didn´t want to rent them flats in the rest of the country (you´d actually see phrases like "No northerners" in ads).

Nah, a nice bunch for the most part. No problems with casuals like in Oslo and Bergen (afaik).

Tromso coach Agnar Christensen is sweating on the fitness of midfielder Magnus Andersen as he battles with an ankle injury, while Ruben Kristiansen and Jaroslaw Fojut should be fit to play after recovering from illness.
Now that is one hell of a name. Half expecting him to come onto the pitch on horseback swinging a battleaxe.

The OS have some info on Tromso

Tromso IL have suffered their fair share of bad luck on the road this season.

Their primary two strikers, Morten Moldskred and Zdenek Ondrasek, have found themselves often jockeying for the central striker’s position, and thus losing out on the chance to gather any real consistency. As a result, by comparison to the last few seasons, the Norwegians have found the going tough at domestic level and are battling to put distance between themselves and the drop zone.

They have lost their last seven away games in the Tippeligaen – the top division in Norway – although their away excursions in Europe have been comparatively more productive.

Over the later summer months, Tromso have successfully navigated their way through three qualifying rounds, before losing in the play-off round to Besiktas, only to be reinstated after their opponents were excluded from the competition.

But out of their three qualifying round triumphs, only in the first – against Slovenian side Celje – have they won the away leg. On that occasion, they overturned a 2-1 first-leg deficit with two goals inside the opening 16 minutes to win the second leg 2-0, thus progressing 3-2 on aggregate. In fact, the club hasn’t managed to muster more than two goals

Ondrasek is the club’s joint top scorer in the current Europa League campaign, alongside midfielder Magnus Andersen – both men having featured in all eight games the club has played in the competition so far.

On the domestic scene, midfielders Remi Johansen and Thomas Bendiksen have supplied a steady stream of goals between them, and are currently the club’s joint-top scorers in all competitions along with Ondrasek, all of whom have bagged eight goals.

At the back, Tromso have utilised their defensive options to good effect, and despite rotating players in the back four in their last couple of outings, opposing strikers have not been able to put more than two goals past goalkeeper Marcus Sahlman in any one game so far in this season’s Europa League.


Stat Attack:
Eight players have appeared in all eight of Tromo’s Europa League matches so far this term, either starting or from the bench – goalkeeper Marcus Sahlman, defenders Ruben Kristiansen and Miika Koppinen, midfielders Thomas Bendiksen, Thomas Drage, Magnus Andersen and Remi Johansen, and striker ZdenekOndrasek.

Tromsohave put their opponents under a fair amount of pressure in the early stages of this season’s Europa League. They have forced 37 corner kicks across their eight matches so far, putting them in the list of the top 10 most corners won across the whole competition to date.Zdenek Ondrasek has so far been Tromso’s biggest threat in front of goal in the 2013-14 Europa League campaign. He has fired eight shots on target in the club’s eight games in the competition to date, with another two off-target.

Tromso have shown a tendency to concede around the mid-point of games in their Europa League matches so far. The average time of their first goal conceded while playing at home has been 42 minutes. More noteworthy ahead of tonight’s game, the average time of their first goal conceded in away games has been 58 minutes.
Tromso have failed to score in three of their eight Europa League matches in the 2013-14 competition to date – all of which have been away from home.

Although their third qualifying round tie against Differdange was decided by a penalty shootout, Tromso have not yet drawn an individual match in the Europa League in 2013-14. By comparison, they have currently drawn more games than they have won in the Tippeligaen.

Tromso will be keen to capitalise on their set play opportunities when they arrive. They have so far been
awarded 22 free-kicks and one penalty in this Europa League campaign.
