Bodø/Glimt are set to welcome Viking FK to the Aspmyra Stadion this weekend with the club still sitting unbeaten in the Eliteserien and well ahead of everyone else in the table with Viking sitting in second.
Although Bodo/Glimt are unbeaten in the league with seven wins and just one draw, they are playing against second place in this one and they could see their lead cut five points with a loss.

A defeat, however, is unlikely given how they are at home and how they have now scored 21 goals and let in just seven across the eight games this campaign. On the other hand, Viking in second do have a game in hand to play too.
The league leaders have now put together a winning run of five games after their midweek victory over Mosjoen in the Norwegian Cup first round.
They also defeated Tromso 3-2 in the last outing after also beating Rosenborg 3-2, Lillestrom 2-1 and Odd 2-0.
Their last dropped points and their only draw this season came just before this with the club drawing with Brann 2-2 at home.
As for Viking, they smashed Forus og Gausel 5-0 at the same time in the Norwegian Cup first round. They have also put together a lengthy unbeaten run too, as they defeated Odd 3-2 and Sandefjord 2-1 before that.
The club drew 1-1 with Stromsgodset before that, although they registered a stunning 7-3 win over HamKam in the game before that.
Their only loss this season came in a 1-0 defeat to Rosenborg back at the start of April.
These two did meet back in a club friendly in January with Bodo/Glimt running out 1-0 winners in the game.
The winning side also saw 70% of the ball that day. Viking have now secured 16 goals this season in the league and lost only once. They've also managed to draw two matches too with them also conceding nine games.
Viking will be confident of heading into this game and taking all three points as they also beat Bodo/Glimt 2-0 in the Eliteserien. Zlatko Tripic and Sebastian Sebulonsen scored a goal each that day for Viking.
Forebet predicts another close game between these two with many different results over recent times between them. Forebet predicts a draw and for the game to see over 2.5 goals.
