Bodo/Glimt v Valerenga Bet Builder Quick Tips & Preview

Specialist in Scandinavian & European soccer. I have been in the betting game for nearly 20 years now with a summer focus on the Norwegian & Swedish leagues. With an in-depth knowledge of the region & teams I have been involved in a specialist podcast & more for close to a decade. My favourite types of bets are attacking the goal lines and identifying the tactics & style of each team & manager who can contribute positively. Outside of betting I was once a Sunday League goalkeeper myself. But my boots are now retired and instead prefer to hit up the cricket pitch and golf course in my spare time.

Bodo/Glimt are 4th in the Eliteserien table and have won three consecutive matches. Their victory away to title rivals Viking last week 4-2 was a massive result for the club and puts their title credentials back in their own hands.
They are now only seven points adrift of Viking at the top, but have three games in hand. Glimt have dropped silly points at times this year, but the underlying metrics have them as clearly the best team. They have the best average xG per game (2.08) and by far the best xGA (0.97).
🔵 Victory Gives Valerenga Breathing Space
It was a welcome win for Valerenga last week, 3-0 at home to rock bottom side Haugesund. It was a convincing victory, although their opponents are woeful this season. Valerenga are now four points clear of the relegation zone in 11th place.
Their underlying metrics suggest they could be performing better. Their average xG per game of 1.73 is actually the 5th most in the league, and they should have scored 26 goals rather than their actual 20.
📊 Bodo/Glimt v Valerenga H2H
Bodo/Glimt have won the last seven competitive meetings, the last of which was in the Norwegian Cup back in 2023 when Bodo Glimt won 4-2.
All of the last four meetings have gone over 3.5 goals and the last two Eliteserien meetings between the two sides at this venue resulted in 5-1 and 4-2 Bodo/Glimt victories.
