The Norwegian top flight action continues on Monday night with the one fixture being played – a clash between Bodo/Glimt and Valerenga as the betting tips continue at the Aspmyra Stadion.
Bodo/Glimt Prediction – Can Los Angeles be beaten at home?
With just 1 point separating them from the current Norwegian top flight league leaders, Molde, Bodo/Glimt know that all 3 points in Monday night’s clash with Valerenga would see the hosts move to the top of the Eliteserien with a 2-point cushion.
Having won 7 of their last 9 matches overall in the Eliteserien, current form would suggest that Bodo/Glimt are well placed to take the spoils here although their only defeat during this recent 9-match sequence was a heavy 6-0 loss away at Monday night’s opponents, Valerenga, back in early July.
But Bodo/Glimt return to home turf and their Aspmyra Stadion where they’ve posted an overall impressive record of 7-1-1 23/7 which not only includes winning their last 4 home matches on the trot but also includes 4 clean sheets.
Goals have also featured for the hosts too as 7 of Bodo/Glimt’s 9 home matches have seen the hosts score 2 goals or more, and the likes of midfielder Evjen (8 goals) and forward Layouni (9 goals) will be looking to add to their goal tallies this evening.
Valerenga Prediction – Can Valerenga do the ‘double’ over Bodo/Glimt?
As mentioned earlier, Monday night’s visitors, Valerenga, inflicted a heavy 6-0 thrashing upon Bodo/Glimt in their previous meeting back in early July, but since then the visitors have failed to win any of their subsequent 4 league matches in the Norwegian top flight.
Two draws (v Kristiansund 1-1 and Stabaek 1-1) along with defeats to Stromsgodset and Haugesund have cost Valerenga valuable ground on the race for a top three spot in the Eliteserien, and the visitors now find themselves 9 points shy off 3rd placed Odd, with just 11 matches remaining of the season.
Results away from home have also been disappointing for Valerenga who have posted an away record so far this season of 2-3-4 15/17 with both of their wins on the road coming against bottom half opposition in the shape of 14th placed Ranheim and 10th placed Haugesund.
The bigger picture tells us that Valerenga have collected just 3 away wins from their last 19 matches on their travels in their Eliteserien, so tonight’s trip to face a highly-motivated Bodo/Glimt outfit looks a tall order for the visitors.
Key-Facts – Bodo/Glimt v Valerenga
- Bodo/Glimt have won their last 4 home matches on the trot in the Eliteserien
- Bodo/Glimt have scored 2 goals+ in 7 of their 9 home matches to date
- Valerenga have collected just 3 away wins from their last 19 matches on the road
Betting Tips Verdict
Bodo/Glimt should grab the points here and move top of the Eliteserien.
