Union St. Gilloise vs Bodo/Glimt
📖 The Preview
Union St. Gilloise look the right side to be on here. They're at home, they're in decent form, and crucially they've had nine days to prepare compared to Bodo/Glimt's three — that kind of rest advantage in a high-stakes knockout tie can really show in the second half. The Norwegians have been brilliant lately and will make this uncomfortable for a spell, hence the 3-1 rather than a cruise, but the model gives Union over 57% to win and backs both teams to score in a four-goal game. Home advantage seals it.
