Club Brugge only need to avoid defeat  at home against Bodo/Glimt to win Europa Conference League Group D. They go into this final game with a three-point lead over their opponents with both sides having already qualified for the knockout stages. Brugge won the reverse fixture 1-0 and come into this game as the only side yet to lose a group fixture. The Blue-Black have scored 12 goals in the group and conceded just twice. Home form has seen them beat Lugano and draw with Besiktas. Winning the group will be a top priority for 'the club' as that will take them straight into the last 16. Their most recent game saw them held to a goalless draw at Mechelen ending a run of four successive wins. They are strong defensively with a clean sheet kept in each of their last seven games.

Bodo/Glimt were recently crowned Norwegian champions but lost to Molde in their domestic cup fina last weekend. The Yellow Horde have ten points from their five group games and that's seen them safely into at least the knockout play-off round, six points clear of Lugano. After losing the reverse fixture 1-0 they have their work cut out to win the group due to head-to-head results with the Belgians. Away results in this Europa Conference League group has produced a win at Besiktas and a goalless draw at Lugano. Their last two league and cup games have both been lost. We tip Brugge to get the win here and top the group.
