Venue: Brann Stadion (17317 seats)

This could be an interesting match as Brann have their presumed home advantage while Bodø / Glimt are ahead 13 points in the Eliteserien table.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Bodø / Glimt have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 1-5-4 (win-draw-loss) from ten matches.

It's quite the trip for Bodø / Glimt when visiting Brann as the cities are 1300 kilometers apart.

Bodø / Glimt are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.

Brann form and stats

Overall Eliteserien stats at home this season for Brann, who have the fewest scored goals (11) at home in Eliteserien, are 4-5-3 (wins-draw-losses). Brann are splitting points both home and away, currently holding an interesting streak of four drawn games in a row. Brann have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

The home team returns to Brann Stadion after sharing the points with Sarpsborg 08 (placed 13th) on their last time out; the Eliteserien game ended 1-1. The points were shared before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Molde.

This is expected to be a close game, with Brann perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Brann as a small favourite), we find two games. Brann has won 0 of these, drawn 0 and lost 2.

Brann aren't scoring a lot here at Brann Stadion in the league, with only 11 goals from 12 games. From these home matches, Brann have conceded only 10 goals.

Bodø / Glimt form and stats

The visitors are W5-D4-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Eliteserien. Visiting Bodø / Glimt has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

Bodø / Glimt delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Mjøndalen (placed 16th) in their previous match; a Eliteserien game. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Lillestrøm that ended 0-0.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Bodø / Glimt playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were 3 Bodø / Glimt wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats.

Bodø / Glimt are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 20 times in 12 away games so far. The Bodø / Glimt manager K. Knutsen has some worries about the defense as 24 goals have been conceded in these travels.
