Bohemians 1905 vs Bodo/Glimt Prediction (03.08.2023)

This tie may be almost over before we begin the second leg, as Bodo/Glimt hold a 3-0 lead as they travel to Bohemians. However, that won't stop this from being an entertaining game, as the home side will surely go all out and attack, in a desperate bid to try and get back into the tie.

Bohemians will have been very disappointed with their performance in the first leg last week, but weren't expected to get much out of that game. Had they kept things close, this game would have been interesting, but they are in a position where they have no choice but to go all out attack, in a desperate bid.

The first thing they will want to do is score, something I think they can do. Bodo/Glimt haven't been tight recently, and in the games before and after the first leg, they conceded two goals in each, so their defence can certainly be got at. In the month of July, Bohemians scored 6, 4 and 3 in games, so know how to find the net.

Bodo/Glimt will feel like they have a large part of the job done, but can't come here too complacent, and given they are away from home, they are likely to still field a strong team. They do have to bounce back from defeat in their most recent game, as they lost 2-0 to Tromso on Sunday.

Before that though, they were in excellent domestic form, with a run of seven games unbeaten, six wins and one draw in that period, up until the loss to Tromso. They're in the middle of the season, playing well, and have a three goal lead, this should be a formality for Bodo/Glimt to finish the job and qualify for the next round.

The best value angle here is with goals in the game, so my prediction is for both teams to score. Bohemians have no option but to attack and try to score, I think they will, with nothing to lose. But Bodo/Glimt are dangerous themselves, should field a strong time, and can also score in this one.
