Viking enter the upcoming clash on a remarkable winning streak, having secured victories in each of their last 6 matches. A standout moment in this streak was their impressive 3-2 triumph against the league leaders, a result that underscores their position as a formidable force in the league. This consistent success has earned them the second spot on the league table, with an accumulation of 38 points from 17 matches. Their offensive prowess is evident from their 39 goals scored, while they have conceded 24 in return.
The team's recent performance against the league leaders not only showcased their potential but also highlighted their competitive spirit. With a mere 3-point gap separating them from the top position currently held by Bodo/Glimt, Viking are undoubtedly a contender for the league title.
One of the standout players to watch in this upcoming match is Zlatko Tripic, who has proven to be a key contributor to Viking's success this season. With 10 goals to his name so far, Tripic has consistently found the back of the net, including his notable contribution in their previous clash against Bodo/Glimt. His presence on the pitch adds an extra dimension to Viking's attacking capabilities and will likely be a factor to watch in this matchup.
