Bodo/Glimt, the current leaders of the league, will host FK Haugesund in a highly anticipated match at the Aspmyra Stadion. With an eight-point advantage over their rivals, Bodo/Glimt seems to be on a path to another league title. However, their recent form has shown some vulnerabilities, earning only four points from their last three games.

Bodo/Glimt's resilience was evident in their thrilling comeback against Molde, but they also suffered an unexpected defeat to Stromsgodset. Despite their strong performances overall, their two draws have come on home turf, which may provide hope for the underdogs, Haugesund.

The clash promises excitement as both teams aim to make their mark. Bodo/Glimt will seek to reaffirm their dominance, while Haugesund will strive to cause an upset. With the stage set, fans can anticipate an intriguing battle that will unfold on the pitch at the Aspmyra Stadion.

Haugesund, occupying 11th place in the standings, will enter the match as clear underdogs. Haugesund, under Jostein Grindhaug, are currently embroiled in a relegation battle, with the gap to the teams in 14th and 15th place standing at just five points. However, they have shown signs of improvement with three victories in their last five matches, with their only defeats coming against strong opponents in Molde and Viking.

Bodo/Glimt's recent struggles may give Haugesund some confidence as they prepare to face the league leaders. Despite Bodo/Glimt's vulnerabilities, Haugesund failed to find the net against teams positioned in the top five. Their own attacking record has been less than ideal, with only 12 goals scored in 14 games, making this upcoming match a challenging task.

Possible Starting 11

Bodo/Glimt - Nikita Khaikin, Omar Elabdellaoui, Brede Moe, Odin Björtuft, Fredrik Andre Bjørkan, Sondre Fet, Patrick Berg, Albert Gronbaek, Nino Zugelj, Faris Moumbagna, Amahl Pellegrino.
