Our tip: Bodo Glimt – FC Porto: 2

25.09.2024 18:45

After the Champions League, the second most prestigious club competition on the old continent – the Europa League – is also being presented in a new guise this week. Bodo Glimt and FC Porto will face each other from 18:45 on Wednesday. The role of paper favourites will be played by the visiting team.

Bodo Glimt is currently the leading team in the Norwegian league. After 23 games played, they have 50 points and a seven-point lead over second-placed Brann, who they played in the last round. In addition, Kjetil Knutsen’s team boasts the most productive offence and the most solid defence with a score of 53:21. However, it did not confirm its quality on Sunday. The reigning champion lost 1:4 on the field of the aforementioned club from Bergen.

After four years in the Champions League, Porto will have to make do with the Europa League this year. They tuned up for it with a 3-0 triumph at the Guimaraese stadium, a Conference League participant for a change. Porto has lost only to leaders Sporting in six rounds so far. In the other matches, they have scored in full and are now second in the table of the top Portuguese competition behind the reigning champions Lisbon.

What to bet on:

Both teams have had diametrically opposed weekend performances, which may have some bearing on the upcoming clash. On paper, Porto are by far the better team, facing much better opponents in the Portuguese league than Bodo do in Norway. Brazilian striker Galeno in particular has caught the scoring drool, having netted six goals in his last seven games. Porto should take three points despite the long trip to northern Europe and the specific artificial turf.

Confidence:

7/10
