Valerenga – Bodo/Glimt SOCCER PICKS

Matchday 12 of the Norwegian Eliteserien, match between Valerenga and Bodo. We need both teams to score and score 4 or more goals. If someone wants to risk less, they can go to more than 3.5 goals or to both score and +2.5 but this last installment is somewhat short.

Valerenga is 4th with 22 points fighting for the playoff positions to play the Europa League while leading with 34 points putting the direct towards the league title and Champions League.

The local is already a well-known Norwegian team that will try to do a better season than the previous one where it was at the bottom of the table. This year it is showing a better level. It does not suit us well for this type of pick as it has low average goals. Balance of 16 goals in favor and 15 against giving us 2.58 goals in their matches. The virtue of this team is the good defensive work since it has left the goal at 0 in 5 of 12. Despite this this time a gale like Bodo is coming and I don’t think it will happen in this game. It was already seen in the other 2 games against the 2nd and 3rd classified receiving 4 goals against both. As for scoring, he is not a very top scorer but very regular, remaining without scoring only in 1 of the 12 days. In total, 4 greens in 12 games. Important greens against the best-level teams in the league with two 4-1 on the scoreboard.

As a visitor our high hopes for this pick will come. Bodo arrives with a balance of 43 goals for and 15 against, an average of 4.83 goals per game. He scores a lot and has scored at least 2 goals in each league game but stands out that he receives with some ease, since he has only left a clean sheet in 2 games. 8 greens in 12 games.

Therefore, I think that although the local team is a good defensive team, it is facing the best offensive in the league and I hope that the game will have a high pace that will leave us goals for both teams and in the amount we need.
