- Venue: Aspmyra Stadion
Bodo/Glimt are aiming for their fourth win in a row in the elite series after last season’s UEFA Europa League semi-finalists finally hit form following a rather sluggish start to the new season. They welcome Valerenga to the Aspmyra Stadium on Saturday.
Last weekend, Bodo/Glimt made a strong statement in the title race, beating current Eliteserien leaders Viking 4-2 away from home to inflict the team's first home defeat of the season. Bodo are currently on a three-game winning streak and have lost just once in their last seven league matches.
Valerenga, on the other hand, have nothing to boast about in the title race, as they have not yet managed to build up a comfortable lead over the bottom three teams to avoid the relegation battle. After Valerenga failed to win two games in a row in the first half of July, they finally managed another victory last weekend - with a clear 3-0 win against Haugesund.
Bodo/Glimt - Valerenga Betting Tips: Both Teams to Score
After a relatively slow start to the new Eliteserien season, Bodo have finally stepped up a gear. They have lost just once in their last seven games and are currently on a three-game winning streak in which they have scored seven goals and conceded just two. This fact alone does not argue against Bodo’s superiority ahead of this game, but they have been vulnerable defensively in their last head-to-head encounters with Valerenga, conceding a goal in each of the last two games. Valerenga have also scored in four of their last five away league games. We therefore assume that Bodo will concede a goal on Saturday, meaning that both teams will score.
