Bodo-Glimt vs Zalgiris Prediction: The Norwegians are going to get an easy win

On August 3, 2022, Bodo-Glimt will face Zalgiris in the 3rd qualifying round of the Champions League. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Bodo-Glimt is an experienced team that has often made it to the European cups, but they are only now experiencing their best times. Last season, they reached the Conference League quarter-finals. They won the group stage against Roma with a score of (6:1). At the end of last season, the team managed to retake the gold medal. So they qualified for the Champions League, where they had already managed to beat the Klaksvikar (3:0) and (1:3), as well as Linfield from Northern Ireland (0:1) and (8:0). At the same time, they were also playing in the local league, where they are still only third in the standings.

Zalgiris is the most successful Lithuanian team of the last decade. They have never finished below second place in the standings, and in the previous two seasons, they have been crowned national champions without fail. However, the team from Vilnius sits just second in the table, two points behind the leader, but they have four games to make up the difference. At the same time, they played in the Champions League, where they managed to beat Balkan Kosovo (1:1) and (1:0) and Malmo (2:0).

Zalgiris created a real sensation in the last round of qualification, beating Malmo (1:0) and (2:0). Bodo-Glimt is unlikely to underestimate their opponents, as they have already seen the strength of the Whites and almost lost their opponents in the last round, but properly prepared for the decisive game. Now, they must prepare for the match with motivation; in that case, they should have no trouble defeating the Vilnius side. You can bet on Bodo-Glimt to win with a handicap (-1.5) at around 1.775.

Bodo-Glimt clearly distinguishes between home and away matches in the current Champions League qualifying. If the Norwegians crushed their opponents with a score of 3:0 and 8:0 on home soil, they lost both times away (1:3 and 0:1), which did not prevent them from qualifying for the next rounds. And now, for the Yellow-Blacks, it will be essential to seize the advantage in the score at home; otherwise, they could face severe problems on the road, which they obviously would not want. On this basis, the optimal variant for the prediction seems to be an individual total of Bodo-Glimt over 2.5 goals with odds close to 2.00.

Bodo-Glimt approaches the upcoming match as a clear favorite, so it will be necessary for the Norwegians to open the scoring quickly, then gradually develop the superiority. Otherwise, Zalgiris may build confidence in their success. The Vikings' more skilled players are unlikely to be satisfied with such an outcome. Therefore, we recommend taking a closer look at our bet on the first goal from 1 to 30 minutes at odds of around 1.624.
