Brann are better organised
Amahl Pellegrino is the talisman of this Glimt side and has the ability to play any position in the front three, but it is his intelligent runs and finishing ability that makes him so dangerous to opposing defenders.
Saltnes provides the drive and creativity to ensure they are never pinned back for too long and their gameplan is to relentlessly attack their opponents until they break.
Freyr Alexandersson has done a fantastic job since taking over as Brann head coach in January 2025, bringing greater defensive discipline to his side.
Japhet Sery Larsen provides the bite and organisation at the back, Niklas Castro is the conductor in midfield and Aune Selland Heggeboe is the goal-getter with three of Brann’s eight in the last five matches.
Our FK Bodo Glimt vs SK Brann Bergen prediction is that Brann will need to remain solid at the back and take their chances when they come.
