Bodo/Glimt vs Arsenal Prediction
Bodo/Glimt are second in the Eliteserien this season. The Norwegian club have made their name as an exciting outfit who have produced some splendid performances in Europe in recent times, and it is not surprising to see manager Kjetil Knutsen linked with clubs in England. The club continues to play good football under Knutsen's leadership.
Arsenal, on the other hand, have been an excellent outfit this season and have arguably been the best team in the Premier League this campaign. They are top of the league table, one point ahead of second-placed Manchester City.
Arsenal's attack, including Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka, have impressed. Jesus has immediately slotted into Arsenal's attack following his summer arrival from Manchester City, and the 25-year old has been one of the best forwards in the league so far.
In defense, Benjamin White and William Saliba in particular have excelled. Saliba, in particular, has cemented his position in Arsenal's defense after some tumultuous years. The France international has been compared to Virgil van Dijk, and it can be argued that the 21-year old has been better than the veteran defender this season.
Arsenal look excellent, and will be the favorites to win this game.
