IK Start will be playing for pride and a massive upset this Wednesday when they welcome last year’s runners-up, Bodoe/Glimt, in Matchday 8 of the Norwegian Eliteserien. With the hosts desperately searching for consistency and the visiting heavyweights looking to maintain their tight grip on the league title race, we’re going with the “BTTS:No” bet  in this match prediction.

The 15th-placed Start arrives on Wednesday, stuck deep at the very bottom of the table. With nine games already played for IK, they currently have the highest chances of relegation.

That is, unless Start can turn things around right away. Already, the home side has managed to score in seven of their nine league games despite recording only nine goals so far. But even more interesting is that Bodoe/Glimt was one of the only two teams that IK Start failed to score against this season. Gleam thrashed Start 5-0 in that game, which took place just last month.

For analysts like us, that clean sheet win for Bodoe/Glimt (and the next one we predict) is unsurprising, as the visitors have conceded the joint-fewest goals this season while keeping the most clean sheets.
