Bodo/Glimt vs FC Porto Prediction & Betting Tips (25 September)

Bodo/Glimt was very close, but so close to playing in the Champions League this season but it failed at its gates by losing in the play-off against Red Star Belgrade, but not just any way... Indeed , the Norwegians, reigning national champions, had won the first round at home 2-1 but in the 2nd round, the evening's locals escaped by conceding defeat by two goals 2-0! So much regret for this team which, every year, competes in the qualifiers for European competitions. At the time of writing, there were 9 days of the championship remaining for Bodo who occupied the first spot with 10 points ahead of the competition. The back-to-back is very close and the Yellow Horde will have tried to get closer during the reception of HamKam and a trip, last weekend, to the Brann lawn to follow. Mythical club in Portugal but also in Europe, as evidenced by its coronation in the 2004 Champions League under the leadership of José Mourinho and against the Monaco of Deschamps who had defeated the galactic Real Madrid of Zidane and the whole squad.

In short, 20 years later, the Dragons continue to write their history under European skies but following their 3rd place in the league last season, the fire eaters failed to advance to the league stage of the League of Champions. To discuss Porto's start to the season in its championship, Mar Azul stood out by winning the first three days without conceding a goal against Gil Vicente 3-0, on the Santa Clara meadow 0-2 and for the reception of Rio Ave 2-0. As funny as it is, on each of these three scores, each time the opponents finished the game ten against eleven. Before the international break, the beautiful story ended on the lawn of the defending champion, Sporting defeated 2-0. Los Tripeiros hosted Farense and traveled to Guimaraes last weekend to follow.

Among the Bodo, there are a lot of absences to report for this part, starting with the important Wenbangomo (continuing appearances before his injury) and the Slovenian international Zugelj (present at the Euro with his selection). For the rest, the players mentioned have been absent for many weeks or even months and quite honestly, the club has learned to do without them. Daniel Bassi (19 years old), Elabdellaoui, Skeide, and Vetti. It will be recalled that the locals lost their top scorer in the league in the person of Gronbaek (Danish international, 8 goals in 15 appearances in the league) who joined Rennes during the transfer window. On the other hand, striker Hogh (8 goals), and Norwegian international Berg (6 goals) will be present.

Injured for months, Marcano and Zaidu will likely be missing once again. These are the only two major absences to report for the Dragons who can no longer count on Mehdi Taremi (Inter Milan) and Evanilson, transferred to Bournemouth this summer. Arriving this summer from Atlético Madrid after a promising season with Alaves in La Liga (8 goals), Samu Omorodion will have his share of importance this season in the same way as Ivan Jaime (2 goals, 2 assists in the league) , or the Spanish international hopefuls Nico Gonzalez (ex-Barcelona, ​​1 goal, 1 cake in the league) and the Brazilian crack Pepê (4 goals, 6 assists last season).
