Lillestrøm vs FK Bodo/Glimt Prediction: The Birds look for their first win over the Yellow Horde in their last 12 league games

Lillestrøm will be aiming to secure their first league victory over Bodo/Glimt in their last 12 encounters when they face off at the Åråsen Stadion on Sunday. Below are previews, possible starting 11, expert betting tips, and odds.

Lillestrøm secured a 2-0 victory in their last league match against Haugesund. During the game, Lillestrøm had 50% possession and made 15 attempts on goal, with 6 shots on target. Thomas Lehne Olsen opened the scoring in the 13th minute and Eric Kitolano doubled the lead in the 34th minute. This win followed their first-round 3-2 loss to Kristiansund. Additionally, they recently secured a 7-0 victory over Bjorkelangen in a cup fixture. Despite their recent form, Lillestrøm has not defeated Bodo/Glimt in their previous 12 league encounters.

Unfortunately, Erling Knudtzon (head injury), Eric Larsson (bruise), and Lars Ranger (recovering from cruciate ligament surgery) will be unavailable.

Bodo/Glimt head into this game after securing a 1-0 victory against Viking in their last league match. During the game, Bodo/Glimt enjoyed 59% possession and made 15 attempts on goal, with 5 shots on target. Ulrik Saltnes scored the decisive goal in the 83rd minute. They also secured a comfortable win in their midweek cup fixture, defeating Bronnoysund 6-0. Bodo/Glimt are currently on a 3-game winning streak in all competitions. Unfortunately, Runar Espejord and Sondre Fet remain sidelined due to injuries.

Lillestrøm – M. H. Christiansen, Uba Charles, Espen Garnaas, Ruben Gabrielsen, Martin Roseth, Ylldren Ibrahimaj, Marius Lundemo, Gjermund Aasen, Eric Kitolano, Thomas Lehne Olsen, H. Langaas Skogvold.

Bodo/Glimt – Nikita Haikin, Fredrik Sjoevold, Brede Mathias Moe, Jostein Gundersen, F. Andre Bjoerkan, Haakon Evjen, Patrick Berg, Albert Groenbaek, Nino Zugelj, August Mikkelsen and Jens Petter Hauge.

Lillestrøm have not defeated Bodo/Glimt in their last 12 league meetings. Additionally, in 5 of their last 6 head-to-head games, both teams have scored. Therefore, I expect these trends to continue in the upcoming match.
