Pre-Match Analysis

Molde and Bodo/Glimt meet at Aker Stadion in Eliteserien, Regular Season - 27. This fixture gets under way on Sunday 22 November 2026 at 16:00 UTC.

Current Form

Molde's overall Eliteserien record this term: 5W 2D 3L from 10 games (1.70 PPG). Last five: W D L W W. They are averaging 2.20 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 90% of their matches — an extremely high rate that makes BTTS Yes a well-supported standalone angle from their form alone. This season is still relatively young for Molde, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Molde's home record at Aker Stadion: 7W 1D 2L from 10 Eliteserien appearances (2.20 PPG). They are averaging 2.50 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture. Their home PPG of 2.20 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.70 — Molde are significantly better at Aker Stadion than their overall form suggests.

Bodo/Glimt have collected 2.80 PPG across 10 Eliteserien outings this season: 9W 1D 0L. Last five: W W W W W. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.80 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. Defensively, 0.70 goals conceded per game is elite-level — a side this difficult to score against is a real threat to Over 2.5 and BTTS Yes. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not. This season is still relatively young for Bodo/Glimt, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Bodo/Glimt's form when playing away from home: 7W 2D 1L across 10 road games this term (2.30 PPG). They are averaging 2.10 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. 4 clean sheets from 10 away games (40%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road. Their away PPG of 2.30 is notably below their overall 2.80 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.

The travelling side arrive in better shape. Bodo/Glimt are 1.10 PPG clear of Molde in recent Eliteserien fixtures (2.80 vs 1.70). Backing the visitors outright or on Draw No Bet are both valid approaches where the price allows.

H2H Analysis

The head-to-head record is closely matched — Molde lead 3W to 3W over the last 10 encounters, with 4 draws, though neither side has established a commanding advantage.

These two sides have produced goals at a consistent rate historically, averaging 3.7 per game across 10 meetings. That scoring profile provides genuine support for the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent clash, on 4 May 2026, ended 1–0 with Molde winning.

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.7 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.

Trading

Molde half-time and goal-timing data (48 games, 24 at home): they score before half-time in 88% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 78% of the time; BTTS occurs in 58% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 40%.

Bodo/Glimt half-time and goal-timing data (48 games, 24 at away): they score before half-time in 92% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 75% of those occasions; they lead at the break 73% of the time; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 71% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 46%; they keep a clean sheet 48% of the time.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Molde 56% versus Bodo/Glimt 48%; no strong lean in either direction. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Molde 62% | Bodo/Glimt 73%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Molde 1.62 xG and Bodo/Glimt 1.93 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Molde attack 1.246 / defence 1.062 | Bodo/Glimt attack 1.275 / defence 0.760. League average goals — home 1.712 / away 1.422. Bodo/Glimt's defence strength of 0.760 is below average — they are conceding at a rate that inflates the home xG figure. Bodo/Glimt have an above-average attack strength of 1.275 — the away xG of 1.93 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 48 Molde games / 48 Bodo/Glimt games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Molde 33% | Draw 22% | Bodo/Glimt 45%. Fair-value odds: Molde 3.03 | Draw 4.55 | Bodo/Glimt 2.22. Bodo/Glimt hold a narrow Poisson edge at 45% — the draw (22%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 69% | BTTS probability 69% | Total xG 3.55. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 69% — a total xG of 3.55 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 69% reflects that both xG figures (1.62 / 1.93) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Bodo/Glimt at 45% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 22% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Bodo/Glimt if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 33% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.55 combined xG gives a 69% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 3.4 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.7 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 69%. Form rates corroborate: Molde 60% | Bodo/Glimt 50% BTTS from recent games.

The outsider holds a 33% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.
