Bodo/Glimt vs Maccabi Tel Aviv Prediction and Betting Tips | January 23rd 2025

Bodo/Glimt and Maccabi Tel Aviv return to action in the UEFA Europa League when they square off at the Aspmyra Stadion on Thursday. Both sides head into the midweek clash off the back of contrasting results, with the Israeli outfit claiming a dominant victory over Maccabi Netanya.

Bodo/Glimt were condemned to a second consecutive friendly defeat in the new year last Wednesday when they fell to a 3-0 defeat against Sparta Prague at the Banús Football Center.

Before that, Glimt wrapped up their schedule for 2024 with two consecutive victories, seeing off Lillestrom 5-2 in the Europa League on December 1, two weeks before claiming a 2-1 win over Besiktas in the Europa League.

Bodo/Glimt have picked up 10 points from their six Europa League matches to sit 13th in the standings, level on points with Real Sociedad and Eredivisie giants Ajax.

Maccabi Tel Aviv, on the other hand, returned to winning ways in style as they cruised to a 4-1 victory over Maccabi Netanya in the Israeli Premier League last time out.

This followed a 2-1 defeat against Maccabi Bnei Reine in the State Cup on January 15, a result which saw their 13-game unbeaten run across all competitions come to an end.

Maccabi Tel Aviv now turn their focus to the Europa League, where they have upped the ante, claiming two wins from their last two games, having lost each of the first four matches to start the campaign.
