With a SAS Go ticket you have zero chance of getting on the earlier flight.
The best place in my experience is the transfer desk. While I have been bluntly rejected at the lounge everytime I tried and have a like 1 out of 10 success rate t the gate, at the transfer desk they always took pity with me.
