Valerenga Preview – Can Valerenga match Bodo/Glimt?
4th placed Valerenga have made a solid start to the new Norwegian top flight season as Saturday’s hosts are placed level on points with 3rd placed Odd and will be keen to see how they benchmark against the early runaway leaders of the Eliteserien, Bodo/Glimt, when they clash at the Intility Arena.
Despite being handed heavy defeats away from home at Odd and Molde, both by 4-1 margins, Valerenga still remain unbeaten on home turf this season and possess a solid home record which stands at 3-2-0 9/5 to date.
This includes victories over Viking 2-1, Haugesund 1-0 and a 2-0 win against Stromsgodset and they’ve lost just once in their last seven matches at home; four of the last six matches at home have produced over 2.5 goals while Valerenga’s last meeting at home against Bodo/Glimt ended in a 6-0 rout in favour of the hosts back in July of last year.
Bodo/Glimt Preview – Can Bodo/Glimt avenge previous heavy defeat?
The 6-0 thrashing away at Saturday’s opponents, Valerenga, may still be in the backs of Bodo/Glimt’s minds as they prepare for this upcoming clash in the Eliteserien, with not only revenge on their minds but also looking to open up a gap at the top of the domestic top flight as well.
It’s been a dominating start to the new Norwegian top flight campaign by Bodo/Glimt as the visitors have collected 11 wins from the first 12 matches of this new season which has helped lift them to the top of the table, while goals have also been ever-present.
Each of Bodo/Glimt’s 12 league matches to date have produced three goals or more and with forward pair Junker (10 goals) and Zinckernagel (8 goals) in red-hot goalscoring form along with the team’s overall blistering form, further goals must surely follow in this clash.
