- Tromso to win & over 2.5 goals - 8/5 with William Hill
- Danny Armstrong to be shown a card - 2/1 with William Hill
Kilmarnock have endured a rough start to the new season, and a win against Tromso in the UEFA Conference League qualifiers is now crucial to reignite their campaign.
After a strong finish last term, securing fourth place in the Premiership and earning a Europa League spot, back-to-back heavy losses to Celtic and St. Johnstone have left them at the bottom of the Scottish Premiership table.
Despite Derek McInnes working wonders last season, this campaign has seen Kilmarnock falter. Their 1-1 draw with Cercle Brugge in the Europa League qualifiers hinted at potential, but they failed to capitalise, dropping into the Conference League after a narrow 1-0 defeat in Belgium.
The first leg against Tromso was another tough outing, saved only by a late equaliser from Bobby Wales. With Tromso having enjoyed a rest weekend and Kilmarnock coming off consecutive league losses, the Ayrshire club faces an uphill battle in Norway, needing a much-improved performance to progress in the competition.

Tromso vs Kilmarnock Match Preview
Killie needed an injury-time equaliser to salvage a draw in last week’s first-leg clash at Rugby Park and head into tonight’s second-leg game as outsiders with the bookmakers.
Despite not dominating the match, Tromso appeared more comfortable and threatening, especially in possession. As the action shifts to the Romssa Arena, the Norwegian side are expected to capitalise on their home advantage.
With Kilmarnock struggling in the Scottish Premiership, losing 4-0 to Celtic and 3-0 to St. Johnstone, Tromso should edge this encounter, particularly if an early goal opens up the game and leads to another high-scoring affair.
Agressive Armstrong
Kilmarnock winger Danny Armstrong is a crucial player for Derek McInnes - he contributed six goals and ten assists last season while adapting well to his wing-back role.
However, his aggressive style makes him prone to yellow cards - he received ten last season and matched that figure in the previous campaign.
He was booked in the 3-0 loss to St Johnstone at the weekend, and he looks like a solid bet for another booking this evening in what’s sure to be a tense affair in the Arctic Circle.
