Bodo/Glimt were surprisingly held to a 1-1 draw in their last game against KFUM. Bodo/Glimt controlled the game with 70% possession of the ball but couldn’t threaten KFUM’s defence. They have since returned to winning ways in their last match against RFS in the Champions League qualification quarterfinal second leg. They won the game 3-1. They remain unbeaten in their previous four games. At home, Bodo/Glimt are unbeaten in their last seven games. They sit first on the table with 37 points in 17 games, scoring 37 and conceding 14. Bodo/Glimt are among the best teams on their home soil, with 18 points. Only Viking have more home points (20) than the Glimt.

Haugesund were defeated 4-3 in their last game by Sandefjord. Despite getting the first goal of the game, they lost concentration. They are now winless in 4 of their last five games. Away from home, they are winless in their last three outings. They sit 14th on the table with 17 points in 15 games, scoring 16 and conceding 22.

• Claus Niyukuri will miss this clash due to a knock injury.
• Martin Samuelsen is ruled out of this clash due to an unknown injury.

Bodo/Glimt — Julian Faye Lund, Fredrik Sjoevold, Brede Mathias Moe, Jostein Gundersen, Fredrik Andre Bjoerkan, Haakon Evjen, Patrick Berg, Ulrik Saltnes, Jens Petter Hauge, Oscar Forsmo Kapskarmo, August Mikkelsen.

Haugesund — Egil Selvik, Mikkel Hope, Anders Baertelsen, Ulrik Fredriksen, Oscar Krusnell, Anton Ludviksson, Julius Eskesen, Mathias Sauer, Morten Konradsen, Sebastian Tounekti, Sondre Liseth.

Haugesund suffered losses in their recent games mainly because of their weak defence. Only Rosenborg (12) and Sandefjord (9) have conceded more goals (8) than Haugesund in their last five games. With this, I expect the league leaders to control the game's tempo and get the goals in.
