Rosenborg vs Bodo/Glimt Prediction 29.05.2026 | Eliteserien

Historically dominant giants of Norwegian football, Rosenborg BK find themselves stuck in a prolonged and painful transition phase that shows little sign of easing in 2026, as they head into Round 11 languishing in a deeply concerning relegation position after collecting just eight points from their opening 10 matches.

The Troillongan have looked increasingly fragile and tactically naive in recent weeks, a reality brutally exposed on Monday when they suffered a disappointing 2-0 defeat away to newly-promoted KFUM Oslo.

That setback extended a miserable run of form that has yielded only two wins so far this term, leaving interim boss Alexander Tettey under mounting pressure, particularly with goals proving a major concern, as Rosenborg have managed a league-low seven strikes at this stage of the campaign.

The Trondheim side also continue to deal with several long-term absentees, while experienced midfielder Ole Selnaes is the latest addition to the treatment room after suffering a leg injury in mid-May, although the issue is not considered serious and he could return in the near future.

In stark contrast, Bodo/Glimt cross the Arctic Circle in high spirits as they look to tighten their grip on European qualification spots, currently sitting third with 22 points, just five behind league leaders Viking FK, while also holding a game in hand over several of their closest rivals.

Despite a disappointing start to their May schedule, falling to a narrow 1-0 away defeat against Molde FK, the Yellow Horde have responded in emphatic fashion with four straight victories across all competitions, most recently dispatching Brann 3-1 in front of their home supporters.

Kjetil Knutsen’s tactical setup continues to set the benchmark for attacking, transition-based football in Scandinavia, with Glimt already registering 26 goals in just 10 Eliteserien matches, averaging a remarkable 3.7 goals per game during their current winning run.

In team news, midfielder Sondre Fet is a doubt after picking up a minor injury in the recent clash with Brann, and is likely to be rested as a precaution for this encounter with Rosenborg BK.
