Bodo/Glimt welcome Brann to the Aspmyra Stadion in a matchday 10 Eliteserien clash on Sunday. Both sides are in the top six and capable of playing top-quality football.
Bodo are currently third in the Norwegian top flight with 19 points from nine games, with the leaders Viking only five points above them. In their most recent game last week, Superlaget defeated Start 4-1 away from home, showing the depth of their attacking power.
Thanks for the submission!
Fredrik Sjovold, Sondre Auklend, Patrick Berg, and Hakon Evjen put the game beyond Start, with the home side managing a Hakon Lorentzen consolation from the spot.
Meanwhile, Brann are sitting sixth in the league table with 13 points from their 10 games. The Bergenserne come into this weekend’s match off the back of a 2-1 away loss to Aalesund at Color Line Stadion.
Noah Emmanuel Jean Holm equalized for Brann after Marcu Haagensen Reed gave the home side the lead, but Aalesund would strike late through Henrik Meeland to snatch all three points.

Bodo/Glimt vs Brann prediction
With 22 goals scored in 10 games, Brann have shown an ability to create chances and be prolific. The cup final will be fresh in their memory, and they will want to take revenge.
With only eight goals conceded in nine games, Glimt have the best defense in the top flight, and they will likely make it very difficult for Brann to score more than one goal.
Brann want to remain close to the European qualification places, so they must aim to pick up points and ensure they do not drop down in the standings.
Glimt are used to putting teams under heavy pressure at home with relentless counter-pressing that usually breaks down opposition defenses. They often score more than two goals at home, and we expect them to do the same here.
Glimt should secure a comfortable home win against Brann on Sunday.
Prediction: Bodo/Glimt 3-1 Brann
