Fixture Analysis
It is a Eliteserien clash, Regular Season - 17 as Sandefjord welcome Bodo/Glimt to Sandefjord Arena. Kick-off is set for Saturday 31 July 2021 at 01:00 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Eliteserien games this season, Sandefjord have gone 5W 1D 4L from 10 outings — a 1.60 PPG return. Last five: W W L D W. They are averaging 1.40 goals per game and conceding 1.50 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base. This season is still relatively young for Sandefjord, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Sandefjord's home record at Sandefjord Arena: 3W 4D 3L from 10 Eliteserien appearances (1.30 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.20 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Bodo/Glimt — All Games: 4W 3D 3L from 10 Eliteserien fixtures this season — 1.50 PPG. Last five: L W L D D. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.00 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. This season is still relatively young for Bodo/Glimt, so this record blends games from this season and last.
When travelling in Eliteserien this season, Bodo/Glimt have posted 5W 3D 2L from 10 away outings — 1.80 PPG. Away from home they average 1.70 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
There is minimal separation in the form figures — Sandefjord at 1.60 PPG versus Bodo/Glimt's 1.50. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.
In-Play Data
Sandefjord trading profile (43 games, 20 at home): they score before half-time in 70% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 64% of the time; BTTS occurs in 40% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (home games); they fail to score in 30% of games.
Bodo/Glimt trading profile (43 games, 20 at away): they score before half-time in 80% 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 80% of those occasions; they lead at the break 70% of the time; BTTS occurs in 70% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 75% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 56%.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Sandefjord 46% versus Bodo/Glimt 63%; no strong lean in either direction. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Sandefjord 54% | Bodo/Glimt 77%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Sandefjord 1.25 xG and Bodo/Glimt 1.20 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: Sandefjord attack 0.867 / defence 0.982 | Bodo/Glimt attack 1.048 / defence 0.845. League average goals — home 1.705 / away 1.167. Data: 43 Sandefjord games / 44 Bodo/Glimt games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Sandefjord 34% | Draw 34% | Bodo/Glimt 32%. Fair-value odds: Sandefjord 2.94 | Draw 2.94 | Bodo/Glimt 3.12. The draw (34%) is the Poisson-preferred outcome — neither side is more likely to win than to draw, making draw-inclusive markets the most model-aligned approach.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 44% | BTTS probability 53% | Total xG 2.45. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 56% — total xG of 2.45 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 53% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
The Poisson model's preferred outcome is the draw at 34% — neither side is more likely to win than to draw. Draw-inclusive markets are the most model-aligned approach. Home win at 34% and away win at 32% are close enough that backing either outright carries significant draw exposure.
The Poisson model projects 2.45 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 44% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 53% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Sandefjord 50% | Bodo/Glimt 60% BTTS from recent games.
The outsider holds a 32% 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.

How the Model Works This Match
The model rates Sandefjord's attack at 0.87x the league average against Bodo/Glimt's defence at 0.84x — combine the two and it projects 1.25 expected goals for the hosts. The same calculation in reverse, Bodo/Glimt's attack versus Sandefjord's defence, projects 1.20 expected goals for the visitors.
These ratings are built from 43/44 games of current-season data — a full enough sample to trust.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Sandefjord and Bodo/Glimt finished level at 0-0 at Sandefjord Arena, Regular Season - 17, in the Eliteserien. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Sandefjord 1.25 xG and Bodo/Glimt 1.20 xG, a combined 2.45. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Sandefjord fell 1.2 short of their projected output. Bodo/Glimt landed 1.2 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Sandefjord attack 0.87 / defence 0.98 against Bodo/Glimt attack 1.05 / defence 0.84, drawn from 43/44 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Sandefjord 34% | Draw 34% | Bodo/Glimt 32%, with Sandefjord to win its most likely call at 34%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 34%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 44%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 73% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 53% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 65% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Sandefjord 54%, Bodo/Glimt 77%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 55%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Sandefjord's trading profile (43 games, 20 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 46% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 33% of the time, and duly kept one; they fail to score in 30% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Bodo/Glimt's trading profile (43 games, 20 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 63% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and duly kept one.
Form vs Result
On form, Bodo/Glimt arrived the stronger side — 2.40 PPG against 1.26. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Sandefjord (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.00 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.30 average — tighter than their form line. Bodo/Glimt (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.35 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.25 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
