Napoli vs Bodo Glimt Game Preview

Competition

UEFA Champions League

Game Date

Tuesday, October 20, 2026

Game Time

3:00 PM ET / 12:00 PM PT

Venue (City, Stadium)

Diego Armando Maradona

Tuesday's Champions League visit from an in-form Bodo Glimt to Diego Armando Maradona is no soft landing for Napoli. The Napoli vs Bodo Glimt betting odds still lean toward the hosts.

Napoli are still searching for their first Champions League points. Arsenal edged them 1-0. Villarreal then won 3-1, and the pressure is mounting in the club's centenary season.

Bodo Glimt arrive on a four-game winning streak. Last week's 1-0 win over Borussia Dortmund delivered their first Champions League points, and they look comfortable in this company.

Napoli sit 32nd in the Champions League standings, below a Bodo Glimt side that already has points banked. Another defeat would turn this slump into a full-blown emergency.

Napoli vs Bodo Glimt Recent Results

Napoli's season has gone sideways, with five losses from their opening nine outings across all competitions. The moneyline hit rate backs that up too, with just a 40% success rate on the Napoli line across their last 10 games against all opponents. Alisson Santos picking up a knock against Venezia was the latest blow. Right now this team is short on confidence and short on bodies.

Bodo Glimt's run of four straight wins includes a domestic victory over HamKam over the weekend, and Helmersen and Sondre Fet are pushing to start again. The catch comes on the road in Europe. They have conceded in each of their last 17 away games in continental competition, and that leak is exactly what Napoli need.

Napoli vs Bodo Glimt Lineups & Team News

Injuries & Suspensions

Napoli: David Neres (Injured/out), Antonio Vergara (Injured/out), Costantino Favasuli (Injured/out), Alessandro Buongiorno (Injured/out), Alisson Santos (Injured/doubtful)

Bodo Glimt: Hakon Evjen (Injured/out), August Mikkelsen (Injured/out)

Napoli

Napoli are still without David Neres, Antonio Vergara, Costantino Favasuli and Alessandro Buongiorno, while Alisson Santos is a doubt after his knock against Venezia. Mathias Olivera and Frank Anguissa are fit again and could feature. Kevin De Bruyne and Rasmus Hojlund are expected back in the starting XI after being rested over the weekend, with Hojlund likely to replace Lorenzo Lucca up top. That swing in attack is the big story in the Napoli vs Bodo Glimt lineups.

Bodo Glimt

Bodo Glimt will be without Hakon Evjen and August Mikkelsen through injury, but Odin Bjortuft is available again after serving his suspension. Kjetil Knutsen is expected to recall several regular starters after the weekend win over HamKam, with Helmersen and Sondre Fet both pushing for starting roles. Jens Petter Hauge could also return to the lineup after starting Saturday on the bench.

Napoli vs Bodo Glimt Prediction & Best Picks

Our Prediction

Our Napoli vs Bodo Glimt prediction is a Napoli win in a wide-open game. The hosts are the moneyline favorite at -138 (Sports Interaction). The projections back that up and hand them 2.18 expected goals. Bodo Glimt will land punches of their own, but a wounded Napoli side playing in front of its own fans has the quality to finally turn the page on this slump.

Best Picks

Both Teams To Score: Yes. Napoli's attack should score against a Bodo/Glimt side that also carries a goal threat on the road. Both Teams To Score grades as our strongest angle among the Napoli vs Bodo Glimt best picks. The projections put Yes at 65.16%, with each side expected to hit the net, and the pick also grades as positive expected value.

Total Goals Over/Under: Over 3.5 goals. The model projects an open game with goals at both ends. The projected total of 3.51 goals sits right on top of this Over/Under number. It also flags as positive expected value, and with neither defense looking airtight, the goals should keep coming at both ends.

Napoli vs Bodo Glimt Same Game Parlay

Our Napoli vs Bodo Glimt same game parlay picks combine Napoli on the Moneyline, Rasmus Hojlund to score anytime, Both Teams To Score and Jostein Gundersen to be shown a card.

Napoli on the Moneyline anchors the parlay. The hosts carry a 57% projected win probability, and a desperate home side with its first-choice attack restored is the right side to back.

Both Teams To Score Yes mirrors our top pick. Napoli have not looked solid at any point this season, and this Bodo Glimt front line is good enough to make them pay.

Napoli vs Bodo Glimt Talking Points

Massimiliano Allegri is under real pressure. This is Napoli's worst start in 25 years, and he has warned that Bodo Glimt defend compactly and strike quickly on the counter. That is the matchup to watch. The market has noticed too. Napoli have drifted since the opening line, while Bodo Glimt have been backed in and now sit at +350 (DraftKings). If Napoli bring the technical quality and intensity Allegri has demanded, they have the edge. If the anxiety creeps back in, Bodo Glimt are built to punish it.
