They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 9 points in their last 10 matches, while 3rd placed Viking is fresh off their 1-2 loss against Sandefjord. Kristoffer Lokberg struck first for Viking in the 44th minute, but Mohamed Ofkir got the equalizer for Sandefjord in the 61st minute But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback victory in the 71st minute on a goal by Alexander Ruud Tveter. Viking is looking for direction having 4 win and 3 losses in their last 10 matches.
