Tromso and Bodo/Glimt will battle for three points in an Eliteserien matchday 25 fixture on Saturday (October 19th). The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a 5-3 defeat away to Molde before the international break a fortnight ago.
They were 2-0 down at the break courtesy of goals from Magnus Eikrem and Kristian Eriksen but Leo Cornic halved the deficit in the 56th minute. Halldor Stenevik, Ola Brynhilden and Eriksen scored for Molde while David Edvardsson pulled one back in injury time after Cornic completed his brace.
Glimt's last league game saw them thrash Kristiansund 4-0 at home. Jens Hauge scored a first-half brace, with his goals coming either side of Odin Luras Bjortuft. Philip Zinckernagel completed the rout in the 63rd minute.
The victory left them at the summit of the standings, having garnered 53 points from 24 games. Tromso are 10th on 28 points.

Tromso vs Bodo/Glimt Prediction
Tromso have punched above their weight in this fixture, having won two of the last five head-to-head games.
Bodo/Glimt are on course to successfully defend their league crown and, barring a spectacular implosion, should retain their title. Kjetil Knutsen's side need 10 points from the last six games of the season to be crowned champions.
The Yellow Horde have a key UEFA Europa League away game to Braga to come in midweek and might prioritize their trip to Portugal. However, they should still have enough to claim a narrow win.
