Ajax vs Bodo/Glimt Betting Tips: BTTS / Over 3.5 Goals

Two highly offensive European teams will clash on Thursday in Amsterdam, and we should anticipate a lot of action near the goal.

Ajax is entering this playoff match following a disheartening 3:2 loss to Heerenveen last weekend, which leaves them in fifth place in the Eredivisie. The Dutch giants have been known for high-scoring matches with a fluctuating performance. In 13 of Ajax’s recent 16 games, both teams scored (BTTS) and over 2.5 goals were tallied. Only two of their last 20 games had less than three goals scored. In 13 of these 20 matches, a minimum of four goals were scored.

Bodo/Glimt, a Norwegian adversary, has consistently been a dependable option for goal seekers both this season and in previous years. In their last four Conference League matches, Kjell Knutsen’s team has seen both teams score (BTTS) and more than 2.5 goals. Looking back, only two out of their previous 12 games in this competition did not witness at least three goals.

Bodo witnessed more than 2.5 goals being scored in eight out of their last ten Conference League matches during their travels. In six of these games, the goals scored were four or more.

Given those figures, it’s reasonable to anticipate a high-scoring event where we can expect at least three, possibly four or more goals.

I´m taking BTTS and over 2.5 goals as a double selection while I’ll also take a chance on over 3.5 goals scored at the Johan Cruijff Arena.
