Head-to-head statistics Brann - Bodo Glimt
Brann Team Overview
Eirik Horneland returned to Brann in July. In Europe, results came quickly: the club knocked out PAOK on aggregate (4-3) and reached the Conference League league phase. In the Eliteserien, it has been the opposite story - the latest setback was a defeat to bottom-of-the-table Start, after which Horneland admitted the team had lost their style and described their situation as very bad. TV 2 linked the decline to the departure of Felix Horn Myhre, who was sold to West Brom. In the table, Brann sit seventh, nine points behind fourth place, which carries a European spot. They have, however, continued to score at home, finding the net in 14 of their last 15 Eliteserien matches.
Match Results: Brann
Bodo/Glimt Team Overview
Kjell Ingve Knutsen's Bodø/Glimt lead the Eliteserien: after 20 rounds they are three points clear of Viking. The club are also competing in the Champions League league phase, where they made a difficult start - losing 0-5 to Bayern Munich in Munich. Bayern had not scored before half-time, but goalkeeper Nikita Haikin picked up an injury just before the final whistle. Bodø/Glimt's injury list was already lengthy. Haikin did not play against Sandefjord, though Knutsen insists the problem is not a long-term one. In that match Bodø/Glimt led by three goals but ended up winning by just one. Knutsen afterwards admitted his side had been lucky and described their defensive display as nowhere near good enough.

A Risky Bet
Both teams have been productive this season: Bodø/Glimt are averaging 2.6 goals scored, Brann 1.85. Their last 13 head-to-head meetings have all produced more than two goals. The bar is high here, though: four goals means the stake is returned, and you need five or more to win. The bet is Total Goals - Over 4.
Reliable Bet
Bodø/Glimt are averaging 2.6 goals per game this season, while Brann are conceding 1.55. Brann also have something to offer going forward: in home Eliteserien meetings between these two sides, they have scored in 14 consecutive matches. That feeds into the main trend: in 10 of the last 11 head-to-head meetings, both teams have scored. The bet is Both Teams to Score - Yes.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the three most likely outcomes are: 1:2 (9.83%), 1:1 (7.69%) and 1:3 (6.67%). The 1:2 scoreline has the highest probability of all, though the difference between second and third place is negligible.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Bodø/Glimt have won nine consecutive matches in the Eliteserien. Brann have nothing comparable to set against that run: they have conceded in 13 of their last 14 home league matches. We don't expect Brann, in their current poor form, to end it. Our pick is a Bodø/Glimt win. Predicted score: 1-2.
