On the 8th of May, Jerv will play host to Tromsø in a Eliteserien match. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 10 degrees, which is great football weather. In their last match, Jerv recorded a 0-1 loss against Vålerenga. Norheim scored the first goal for Vålerenga on an own goal in the 82nd minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Jerv couldn’t muster any offence and Vålerenga ran away with the shutout win. Jerv is looking for direction having 2 win and 2 losses in their last 10 matches, while 13th placed Tromsø is fresh off their 2-5 loss against Sarpsborg 08. Tobias Heintz scored the first goal for Sarpsborg 08 in the 14th minute, then Jonathan Lindseth added another in the 34th minute. Tromsø looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 2 of their last 10.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Tromsø is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Sakarias Opsahl and Maurstad Gundersen each having 2 goals in their last five. Alves Furtado and Doguhan Simsir are the top scorers for Jerv in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal.
