- Competition: Eliteserien
- Date: Friday, 15th August, 2025
- Kickoff: 18:00 UK / 19:00 CEST
- Venue: Marienlyst Stadion (Drammen)
On Friday evening, Stromsgodset will welcome the Norge reining champs, Bodo/Glimt, in the Eliteserien at Marienlyst Stadion in Drammen. Stromsgodset stopped their 11-game losing streak in the last game with a win over Haugesund and will try to continue with positive results in their attempt to avoid relegation. On the other hand, Bodo/Glimt are trying to return to the top spot just before the crucial games in the Champions League Qualifiers against Sturm Graz, which will take place just five days after the Stromsgodset game.

Eliteserien
These teams met just about a half a month ago when Bodo/Glimt won 1:0 at home. Additionally, Bodo/Glimt are on a four-game winning streak vs Stromsgodset. Looking further back, Stromsgodset had very little success in recent h2h games, winning only once in the last 15 games.
Stromsgodset team overview
After two seven-place finishes, Stromsgodset are playing an absolutely terrible season and look like a relegation candidate. Still, those seven places look a lot better than they actually are because they only won 38 and 42 points and were nowhere near European spots. This season started pretty well for the team from Drammen, and it didn't look like they would be this bad. Before the last game, they lost 11 straight games, but perhaps a 2:0 win over Haugesund could help them change the negative momentum.
Unfortunately, in the last game, one of their best central defenders, Jasper Taaje, suffered an injury and had to leave the field after only 11 minutes. This season, the 27-year-old Taaje started in 76% Eliteserien games and scored two goals.

Bodo/Glimt team overview
Bodo/Glimt are doing an excellent job. Besides winning the Eliteserien last year, they did a fantastic job in the Europa League, reaching the Semi-Finals but losing to the eventual champions, Tottenham.
This year, the team from Nordland County continued with good results and only looks better as the season progresses. Before the draw vs Tromso in the last game, they were on a six-game winning streak. Now, after the Stromsgodset game, they will have the Champions League Qualifiers game, and it will be interesting to see whether the coach Kjetil Knutsen will rest some of their key players to keep them fresh for the Sturm Graz duel.

Prediction
Even though Stromsgodset have been in terrible form, they are still scoring goals pretty regularly, especially at home. Thus far, they have only won three points in eight home games but managed to score at least one goal on five occasions - 62.5%. And in the last two home games, they scored a total of four goals vs Tromso and Haugesund, which is undoubtedly a reason for optimism.
Meanwhile, with 44 scored goals in 18 Eliteserien games, Bodo/Glimt are the second-best offensive team in the league - 2.4 per game. So, scoring at least a goal against the second-worst team in the league shouldn't be a problem. Another plus for this bet is the fact that they have rarely kept a clean sheet lately. In the last five matches, they only kept their net intact once.
Considering all the above, we believe that both teams to score is the safest option for this Eliteserien tie.
3 Reasons why both teams should score
- Stromsgodset scored in four of the last five games
- Stromsgodset scored two goals per game in the last two home matches
- Both teams scored in four out of the last five of Bodo/Glimt's games
