KFUM Oslo and Bodo/Glimt will battle for three points in an Eliteserien matchday 16 fixture on Saturday (July 27th). The hosts will be hoping to build on their shock 3-2 comeback away victory over Molde last weekend.

They went behind to Mathias Lovik's 20th-minute strike but were ahead at the break courtesy of Hakon Hoseth and Ayoub Aleesami. Magnus Elkrem drew the hosts level in the 65th minute but Johannes Hummelvoll-Nunez scored the match-winner with six minutes to go.

Bodo/Glimt, meanwhile, comfortably dispatched RFS 4-0 at home in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifier on Tuesday. August Mikkelsen opened and completed the scoring in the rout while Ulrik Saltnes and Oscar Kapskarmo scored in between the 23-year-old's brace.

Den Gule Horde will turn their focus to the league where their last game saw them claim a 3-1 home win over Odd.

The victory left them at the summit of the standings, having garnered 36 points from 16 games. KFUM are sixth with 21 points to their name.

KFUM vs Bodo/Glimt Prediction

KFUM are competing in the Norwegian top-flight for the first time in their history and they have overachieved to this point and are far from the relegation zone. They earned a memorable point in the reverse fixture at Aspmyra Stadion and are fresh off a memorable win away to Molde.

Glimt are well-positioned to advance to the next round as they continue their quest for a maiden UEFA Champions League group stage appearance. Their domestic aspirations are also on track, as the defending champions hold a six-point advantage at the summit.
