Bodø/Glimt vs Monaco Match Prediction
Why Bodø/Glimt are Favored
In this upcoming encounter, the Norwegian side has a strong reason to anticipate securing points. Bodø/Glimt’s most significant successes on the international stage are typically achieved on their home ground. The Scandinavians have maintained an unbeaten record in their last 9 Champions League matches at home (8 wins, 1 draw). While many of these fixtures were in the qualifying rounds, Kjetil Knutsen’s team has already demonstrated their capability in the current main stage of the UCL by defeating Sturm (5-0) at home and earning a draw against Tottenham (2-2). Their excellent scoring ability will undoubtedly be an additional advantage against their next opponent.
Monaco’s Away Struggles
In the previous round, the French club managed to keep a clean sheet for the first time in their last 6 Champions League matches. However, when playing away from home in this competition, Monaco has conceded at least twice in 6 of their last 7 fixtures. It is evident that earning points becomes incredibly challenging with such an unreliable defense. Consequently, Monaco remains winless in their last 6 Champions League games, and specifically away from home, they have suffered defeats in 3 of their last 4 matches in this European cup (with 1 draw).
My Forecast: “Bodø/Glimt not to lose and Total Over 1.5 goals” with odds of 1.72.
