Fixture Analysis
Valerenga welcome Bodo/Glimt to Intility Arena in Eliteserien (matchday 5). Kick-off is Sunday 25 April 2021 at 18:00 UK time.
Form Guide
Valerenga — last 10 games: 5W 5D 0L, averaging 2.00 points per game. Last five: D D W D W. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 0.60 conceded. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches.
At home, Valerenga have gone 7W 3D 0L in their last 10 home games (2.40 PPG). They are averaging 2.40 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Across their last 10 games, Bodo/Glimt have recorded 8W 1D 1L — 2.50 PPG. Last five: W D W W W. Their attacking form is sharp — 3.40 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Bodo/Glimt away from home: 6W 3D 1L from their last 10 away games — 2.10 PPG on the road. They are averaging 2.40 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.
Form points away from home here. Bodo/Glimt's 2.50 PPG return is 0.50 points per game ahead of Valerenga's 2.00 — the visitors are the form-based selection, and Double Chance is an alternative worth pricing if the outright looks tight.
Both teams have scored in at least 70% of each side's games (from Valerenga's last 10 home games and Bodo/Glimt's last 10 away games). At that combined rate, BTTS Yes is as well-evidenced as it gets — the data strongly backs two-way scoring.
In-Play Data
Valerenga trading profile (last 30 games, 15 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 80% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 75% of the time; of the 11 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 64%; BTTS occurs in 67% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (home games).
Bodo/Glimt trading profile (last 30 games, 15 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 93% of their matches in away games; they lead at the break 80% of the time; BTTS occurs in 80% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 93% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 67%.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Valerenga 63% and Bodo/Glimt 70% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Valerenga 53% | Bodo/Glimt 90%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Valerenga 1.79 xG and Bodo/Glimt 1.44 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: Valerenga attack 1.066 / defence 0.888 | Bodo/Glimt attack 1.200 / defence 0.935. League average goals — home 1.797 / away 1.349. Data: built from Valerenga's last 30 games and Bodo/Glimt's last 30. Some of those games are older results, so treat these probabilities as directional rather than precise.
Result probabilities: Valerenga 45% | Draw 25% | Bodo/Glimt 30%. Fair-value odds: Valerenga 2.23 | Draw 3.97 | Bodo/Glimt 3.34. Valerenga hold a narrow Poisson edge at 45% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 63% | BTTS Yes probability 65% | Total xG 3.23. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 63% — the 3.23 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 65% — both xG figures (1.79 / 1.44) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Valerenga at 45% — moderate model lean. Note a divergence: in-form Bodo/Glimt (2.50 PPG) cuts against the Poisson lean — the model adjusts for opposition strength, which raw form results do not. With a 25% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Valerenga offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 30% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
On the goals line, Poisson's 3.23 combined xG gives a 63% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Valerenga's last 10 home games and Bodo/Glimt's last 10 away games) averaging 3.5 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 65% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Valerenga 70% (last 10 home games) | Bodo/Glimt 80% (last 10 away games).
The Poisson model's sample (Valerenga 30 games, Bodo/Glimt 30) includes some older results, so its projections carry extra uncertainty — weight recent form and the odds accordingly.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Valerenga and Bodo/Glimt finished level at 0-0 at Intility Arena, Regular Season - 5, in the Eliteserien. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Valerenga 1.79 xG and Bodo/Glimt 1.44 xG, a combined 3.23. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Valerenga fell 1.8 short of their projected output. Bodo/Glimt landed 1.4 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Valerenga attack 1.07 / defence 0.89 against Bodo/Glimt attack 1.20 / defence 0.94, drawn from 30/30 games (PrevSeason).
On the result, the model split it Valerenga 45% | Draw 25% | Bodo/Glimt 30%, with Valerenga to win its most likely call at 45%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 25% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 63%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 84% and missed. Over 3.5 was 40% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 65% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 72% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Valerenga 53%, Bodo/Glimt 90%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 67%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Valerenga's trading profile (30 games, 15 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 63% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 33% of the time, and duly kept one.
Bodo/Glimt's trading profile (30 games, 15 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 70% 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 — 2.70 PPG against 1.83. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Valerenga (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.20 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 0.87 average — tighter than their form line. Bodo/Glimt (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.93 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.40 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
