Preview

Brann

• Eirik Horneland has been in charge of Brann since 2 July 2026.
• Brann play their 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 systems very compactly, but then push as many players forward as possible when they win the ball back.
• Brann are currently eighth in Eliteserien 2026 with 26 points from 20 games.
• De røde are coming off a 0-0 draw at Sandefjord and a 1-2 home loss to Lillestrøm, and are in a bad mood after a 0-2 loss at Start last weekend.

Bodø/Glimt

• Bodø/Glimt have won four of the last five head-to-heads between these clubs (D0, L1).
• FK Bodo Glimt have won seven, drawn two and lost just one of their 10 Eliteserien 2026 away games, while they have scored 21 away goals on the road.
• De helgule arrive in good shape after a 2-1 away win at Fredrikstad and a 5-0 away defeat to Bayern in the UEFA Champions League league stage.
• Kjetil Knutsen has been in charge of them since 15 July 2022.
• FK Bodo Glimt have amassed 47 points from 19 as the league leaders.

Head-to-Head

• Bodø/Glimt have won four of the last five meetings.
• Brann have averaged 2.5 goals scored and 1.5 conceded across the last five clashes between the teams in all current competitions.

Betting Insights

• The 1.82 favorite is a little too short for Bodø/Glimt here, while Brann 3.75 and the draw 4.32 looks like a big price considering the circumstances of the home team.
• So, the alternative market of Bodø/Glimt to win and over 2.5 goals should have plenty of scope to land on Sunday given the firepower that Glimt bring to the road and the pace at which this long-running Norwegian rivalry is usually played.

Prediction

• The visitors are the most likely winner, but Brann's pressing ability should make this contest closer than the odds suggest.
• The pace of the game will probably be dictated by the home side, while Bodø/Glimt are the more clinical outfit, they are not unbreakable and Brann will get chances to get on the scoreboard here.
