As di world dey celebrate Norway for World Cup, we dey look at di Norwegian Eliteserien wey dey return full force dis weekend wit match between underdog KFUM Oslo and di most successful team for di past decade, Bodo/Glimt.
KFUM Oslo dey try to establish demsef among Norway elite for dia third season among top teams, but no get much success so far dis season. Di relegation zone dey just one loss away, but e dey worth to note say win fit lift dem to seventh place.
Kaffa main problem na lack of goals, but get one positive—dem get second-most solid defence for home games so far dis season, and dis next match go dey play at home. However, dat no likely to be enough against Bodo/Glimt, wey dey appear to be for better form than dem be one and half month ago.
Glimt make some mistakes at start of di season and now dey trail di leaders by four points, but di gap for quality between dem and most of di league dey evident for di statistics. And make we no forget say just few months ago, Bodo/Glimt defeat Inter, Sporting, Atlético Madrid, and Manchester City for Champions League.
Di bookmakers dey favour di visitors, but still get value for di odds for win. For now, you fit bet on KFUM Oslo at 5/1, draw at 7/2, or Bodo/Glimt at 1/2.
KFUM Oslo na one of di newer teams for Eliteserien, after dem get promoted to top flight for first time for dia history for 2023. Dis na dia third consecutive season for Norway top flight, but so far dem no get much success against di dominant clubs. Dem still dey search for dia first win against Bodo/Glimt after five unsuccessful attempts (2 draws, 3 losses). Last season, Bodo win both matches, and earlier dis year di teams meet for cup semifinal, wey Bodo win again.
After making splash for Champions League, Kasper Hogh don continue im strong form into di new domestic season, already recording seven goals and four assists for 10 Eliteserien matches. Before di break, im get four goals and two assists for im last three matches for di team. Im clearly no get intention to slow down, as Bodo play two friendly matches over di past two weeks, and Hogh find di back of di net for both. Im certainly no be player we fit blindly count on to score every game, but definitely no get better option right now. As bonus stat, im score brace against KFUM last season.
Di gap between di teams dey huge, and right now, Bodo/Glimt look motivated and ready to charge toward di title wey dem don win four times for di last six years. Dat why we expect dem to beat KFUM once again, and dem sure to score few goals for di process. Additionally, di Norwegian Eliteserien na one of our favourite leagues for corners, simply because di style of play and di pitch conditions lead to exactly dat. For di last three H2Hs between dis two teams for di past year, we don see 18, 10, and 17 corner kicks.
