FK Bodø/Glimt entertain LOSC Lille in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday in a crucial fixture for both teams.
The hosts have collected just three points from their three games, although that has to be considered a respectable haul considering they have faced Bayern München, Borussia Dortmund and SSC Napoli.
Lille are yet to get off the mark after three defeats and need a positive result in Norway if they are to stand a realistic chance of progressing, as they have games against Bayern München and AS Roma to come.
Bodø/Glimt v Lille Tips Summary
Best Bet - Bodø/Glimt to win @ 7/10
Alternative Bet - Sondre Fet to score or assist @ 11/4
Bet Builder - Andreas Helmersen to score anytime, Sondre Fet 1+ shots on target & Maxima Goffi to be booked @ 15/1
Bodø/Glimt v Lille Prediction
Best Bet: Bodø/Glimt to win @ 7/10
Bodø/Glimt have made Aspmyra a fortress in the UEFA Champions League and are unbeaten in six games in this competition, a run stretching back to last season and including qualifiers.
That streak began with a win over Manchester City in last season's league phase and they have since beaten Inter and Sporting CP, as well as Borussia Dortmund in this year's main draw.
Bodø/Glimt have won 11 of their last 13 competitive games at this venue across all competitions (D1, L1) and should be able to make their home advantage count against Lille.
The French come into the game in poor form with just one win in five and two defeats in their last three away from home.
Alternative Bet: Sondre Fet to score or assist @ 11/4
Sondre Fet scored and provided two assists in Bodø/Glimt's 4-3 defeat at Napoli in the last batch of UEFA Champions League games and he can make a key contribution when Lille visit.
Fet has been productive in Europe, averaging 1.7 shots and 1.7 key passes per game across seven matches, including qualifiers.
The 29-year-old, who scored against Nijmegen in the summer qualifiers, has been getting and creating chances, so he looks good value for a direct goal contribution on Tuesday.
Bodø/Glimt v Lille Bet Builder Tip
Andreas Helmersen to score anytime
Sondre Fet 1+ shots on target
Maxima Goffi to be booked
Pays 15/1
Andreas Helmersen is the standout contender for an anytime effort for Bodø/Glimt, with 13 goals in 22 Eliteserien games this season and three in seven in the UEFA Champions League.
Sondre Fet is also a candidate to get on the scoresheet, and he should at least be able to test the keeper, with a shooting accuracy of 41.2 per cent.
Teenage defender Maxima Goffi has recently forced his way into the senior Lille side and is already developing a reputation as a card magnet.
Goffi has made six appearances for Lille across all competitions and has been booked in three of those games, including a yellow card in the 3-0 defeat at Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League.
