Last April, Viking thrashed Bodø / Glimt 5-0 at home, and a few months before that they had just won 2-4 at Aspmyra. But this time both teams come in under different circumstances. Bodø / Glimt have just lost two in a row in the league and the Champions League, while Viking still lead the table by 3 points. Bodø / Glimt are still the team with the higher possession overall in the last 10 matches (58.78% per game) and create slightly more shots on target than their opponents, but their late-game defending is a point to watch, as they concede goals between minutes 76-90, accounting for 34% of all goals conceded. Viking come in with a record of 3 wins from their last 5 matches, but their away games still show leaks, especially in the first half when they often trail. If Bodø / Glimt can start the game at home as planned — controlling the ball and pushing high from the start — the first half should be the period where the hosts have the advantage and a chance to take the lead before the break. Viking will likely have to defend deep and wait to counter, which should make the second half more open and increase the chance of seeing more goals from both sides.
