Molde FK vs Bodo/Glimt Prediction and Betting Tips | November 3rd 2024
Molde FK will host Bodo/Glimt at the Aker Stadion on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 Eliteserien. The home side will be hoping to get a result to strengthen their position for European qualification and make a late push for the league title with four games to go in the Norwegian top flight.
MFK go into this game following back-to-back clean sheet victories, having defeated Norwegian 1st Division team Sandnes 2-0 in their midweek NM Cup fixture and Haugesund 3-0 in the league last weekend. The home side have had a strong second half of the season, losing just two league games since the start of August. They'll be looking to continue that good form on Sunday.
The visitors will be looking to return to winning ways having suffered a disappointing 3-2 home loss to Rosenborg last time out. The stakes are high for Bodo/Glimt, who currently sit at the top of the table just two points clear as a loss could see them be overtaken by second-placed Brann, who will be playing bottom-placed Odd at the same time.

Molde FK vs Bodo/Glimt Prediction
The stakes are high for Molde as they are only four points ahead of in-form Rosenborg in fifth place and a loss would risk their chances of European qualification. Erling Moe's men will be looking to capitalize on their home advantage to give them an edge on Sunday.
League leaders Bodo/Glimt have more on the line and will try to return to winning ways despite their checkered run of form in the league. They have, however, won just two of their last seven games on the road and could see defeat here.
