Bodo/Glimt takes on the visitors Stromsgodset in the round 8 match of Norwegian Eliteserien. The match will be played on Wednesday, May 25th at Aspmyra Stadion (Bodø).
Bodo/Glimt started unsuccessfully the season in Norway. Glimt experienced their peak in previous years - becoming the champion in 2020 for the first time in history, then the team was able to defend its title. In addition, the Norwegians managed to reach the playoffs of the Conference League. And it seems that it was the team's priority. The Scandinavians managed to knock out such giants as Celtic and AZ in the play-offs, and they also won the first leg of the quarterfinals against Roma. But in the end, the Italians won, and now they need to switch back to fighting only in the domestic arena. Hence the weak start for a two-time champion - only 2 wins in the first 6 rounds. But the win over Haugesund on Sunday allows us to predict a rise, and a fast one at that.

Stromsgodset remembers relatively recent successes. "The Estate" was at their peak just over a decade ago. First, in 2010, the country's cup was won. After 2 years, they managed to take silver, and in the next draw they managed to take the championship, only the 2nd in history. In fact, this was the end of the rise - after that, one could only remember reaching the cup final, and that was already in 2018. And in 2021, the championship ended for the team with only the 9th final position. The new draw also had an extremely strained start, with 3 defeats in the first 4 rounds. There was even a 0-5 rout. But in May, it turned out to establish both defense (they stopped conceding) and attack (Rosenborg and Kristiansund were beaten 3-0 each). Valerenga, however, scored a couple of goals, but conceded more.
Stromsgodset last won a head-to-head in 2018. In last season, Bodo/Glimt won at home 7-2, however, then they limited themselves only to a draw on the road. Bodo/Glimt is gaining momentum. Yes, they will face a difficult opponent now, but the champion is playing at home. We recommend betting that in this meeting the hosts will win with a handicap.
Prediction for the match: Bodo/Glimt to win with -1.0 handicap.
