Brighton will be looking to continue the great record of English clubs in the Europa Conference League this term, starting out with a trip to Tromso . West Ham, Chelsea and Crystal Palace have lifted this trophy in the last four seasons and Albion will be among the favourites to follow suit.
Their opponents in this qualifier for the league phase may have a fitness edge, being over halfway through their domestic campaign. However, the Seagulls are still fancied to make their class tell, so a BOYLE Sports price boost of 5/2 for an away win and both teams to score is our initial Tromso vs Brighton prediction.

Form Guides
Tromso form guide
Tromso famously beat Chelsea 3-2 at home in a 1997-98 Cup Winners’ Cup clash before being thrashed 7-1 in the second leg. More recently, they lost 2-0 and 3-0 to Tottenham in a 2013-14 Europa League group and two years ago went down 3-2 on aggregate against Kilmarnock in a Conference League qualifier.
Norwegian football is on a high right now, though, thanks to the exploits of their national team at the World Cup and Bodo/Glimt’s Champions League efforts. Tromso finished a distant third behind Viking and Bodo in last year’s Tippeligaen table and are occupying the same position this term.
Jorgen Vik’s side were beaten 4-1 on aggregate by Czech outfit Hradec Kralove in a Europa League qualifier but crushed CFR Cluj of Romania 7-1 when dropping into this competition. On the domestic front, after returning from a World Cup break, Tromso netted 14 times in a hat-trick of Tippeligaen wins before being edged out 3-2 at Molde on Sunday. With proven goalscorer Heine Larsen on a hot streak of eight strikes in as many games, another price boost of 5/2 for both teams to score and over 3.5 total goals catches the eye.
Brighton form guide
Albion enjoyed their first taste of European football during the 2023-24 campaign, topping a Europa League pool featuring Ajax , Marseille and AEK Athens before being knocked out by Roma . Shrewd owner Tony Bloom and ambitious young manager Fabian Hurzeler will no doubt view outright success at this slightly lower level as an achievable target after finishing eighth in the Premier League last term.
Having seen top scorer Danny Welbeck move to Chelsea and key defender Jan Paul van Hecke join Tottenham , Hurzeler will be hoping for others to step into the breach. New arrivals Pascal Struijk from Leeds and Austria defender Michael Svoboda can help plug the gap at the back, while £40million forward Georginio Rutter will be out to take his chance leading the Seagulls ’ attack.
Albion will be buoyed by a hat-trick of friendly wins over Strasbourg , Roma and Bologna and will be keen to get another positive result in Norway prior to hosting Aston Villa in Sunday’s Premier League opener. Let’s add 11/1 for the visitors to prevail 3-1 to our Tromso vs Brighton betting tips.
