Tromso to make it a clean sweep
Norwegian side Tromso IL go into Thursday's game as the clear bookies' favourites at 79/100, with Romanian side CFR 1907 Cluj the heavy outsiders at 353/100. This is no surprise as Tromso are the side 5-0 up after an emphatic win away from home in the first leg of this UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 contest.
This tie looks to have Tromso written all over it, and it seems that they have every chance of finishing the job on Thursday at the Romssa Arena. Jørgen Vik's side can operate a 4-2-3-1 or a 4-3-4-3 formation, and they play their best football when they can stretch the pitch and run at the opposition through the channels. Tromso have won 3 of their last 5 games, and their attack has been in full flow.
Cluj are a different proposition and Antonio Folha sets them up to be compact, counter in numbers, and to be dangerous on set pieces. The visitors have been in patchy form of late, with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from their last 5 outings. The latter of those losses was a 0-5 defeat at the hands of Tromso, whilst the other was a 3-1 reverse in the league at Rapid Bucuresti.
Goals, goals, goals
Cluj have won just 1, drawn 2 and lost 2 of their 5 away games this season, so we're not expecting a huge positive result for them at Romssa Arena. However, Tromso's higher tempo game should ensure that the visitors are pinned back a lot of the time, but if they can get through the first press unscathed then they can really bite.
Over 2.5 goals, at 7/10, and both teams to score - Yes, at 13/20, are the angles for Thursday's tie that make the most appeal at the current prices.
Isak Dahlqvist has been Tromso's main spark in this competition with 3 goals in 1 match so far, and he is their overall top scorer in UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026, whilst Alin Razvan Fica leads the way for Cluj with 1 goal in 3 games. The hosts are the most likely to finish the job here, so the BTTS line is the way to go.
Stefan Drazic has been Cluj's bright spark in recent weeks with 3 goals (of their last 10) and 3 assists in the last 5, whilst Heine Aasen Larsen has also been ruthless for Tromso, scoring 5 of their last 15 goals in their last 5 competitive games.
