Rosenborg vs FK Bodo/Glimt Prediction: Clash of the titans in the Norway Eliteserien

Rosenborg and Bodo/Glimt will settle scores at the Lerkendal Stadion on Saturday. Bodo/Glimt have not lost in their last six games. Can they continue this form? Below are previews, possible starting 11, expert betting tips, and odds.

Rosenborg

Rosenborg started the season with a 2-0 win over Sandefjord. They, however, suffered a setback in their second game, where they lost 1-0 against Stromsgodset. They have since won 4 straight games after the loss, which include a 3-1 win in their most recent league outing and a 3-1 win in the cup fixture during the week. Rosenborg sit 4th on the table with 9 points in 4 games, scoring six goals and conceding 2. Due to injury, Adrian Pereira, Jonathan Augustinsson, and Noah Jean Holm are out of this game.

Bodo/Glimt

Bodo/Glimt remain unbeaten this season after recording a 1-1 draw in their last game against Molde. Nino Zugelj opened the scoring for Bodo/Glimt in the 8th minute of the match before Kristoffer Haugen levelled for Molde in the 55th minute of the game. Bodo/Glimt controlled the game with 70% possession of the ball but were limited to just one shot on target from their five attempts. However, Bodo/Glimt returned to winning ways during the week, defeating Junkeren 2-0 in the NM Cup fixture.

Bodo/Glimt sit top of the table with 10 points in 4 games, scoring nine goals and conceding just 1. However, Goalkeeper Julian Lund, Omar Elabdellaoui, Sondre Fet, Runar Espejord, and Daniel Bassi are all out of the game.

Possible Starting 11

Rosenborg — Sander Tangvik, Erlend Dahl Reitan, Mikkel Konradsen Ceide, Tomas Nemcik, Ulrik Yttergaard Jenssen, Sverre Halseth Nypan, Ole Kristian Selnaes, Markus Henriksen, Emil Frederiksen, Ole Christian Saeter, Jesper Reitan-Sunde.

Bodo/Glimt — Nikita Haikin, Fredrik Sjoevold, Brede Mathias Moe, Jostein Gundersen, Fredrik Andre Bjoerkan, Haakon Evjen, Patrick Berg, Albert Groenbaek, Nino Zugelj, August Mikkelsen, Jens Petter Hauge.

Expert Betting Tips

Bodo/Glimt have been the favorites in 5 of the last six encounters between the two sides. However, they have won just once, with four ending in draws. With this, I see this young Rosenborg side getting at least a draw in this game. I also expect both sides to score in this game as well.
