Bodo/Glimt will entertain second-placed Brann at the Aspmyra Stadion in a top-of-the-table Eliteserien clash on Sunday. Just two points separate the two sides at the top of the table, so a win will help the visitors climb to pole position while a win for the hosts will help them open up a five-point gap at the top.

The visitors are unbeaten in their last three league games, though they saw their winning streak end after two games last week with a goalless draw against Stromsgodset, failing to score for the first time since April.
