Editor's Pick
Molde's matches have long followed the same pattern: over 2.5 goals in seven consecutive Eliteserien games. The hosts won't sit back now either - they need to close the gap on the top four. Tromsø tell a similar story: over 2.5 goals in 6 of their last 7 matches. We don't expect cautious football from either side. The bet is total over 2.5. Predicted score - 2:2.
