Club Brugge will be looking to maintain their unbeaten run in Group D of the Europa Conference League as they welcome Bodo/Glimt to Jan Breydelstadion. The group is already decided so there is nothing at stake, although the Belgians will be keen to finish with a win in front of their fans.
Club Brugge have been head and shoulders above everyone else in Group D and are already guaranteed top spot. Having been held to a draw in their opening fixture, Ronny Deila’s men have gone on to win their last four matches in the group, culminating in the 5-0 victory at Besiktas last time out.
The Belgians have shown their quality across all competitions, suffering just one defeat in their last 11 matches. Their impressive form has been driven by a sturdy defence that has kept clean sheets in the last seven matches in that run.
The Jan Breydelstadion has also been a fortress for Club Brugge this season as they have won four of their last five matches in front of their fans. The backline has caught the eye once again, keeping clean sheets in the last four in that run.
Bodo/Glimt are also playing for pride on Thursday and they can only finish second in the group. After failing to win their opening two matches, they have now won their last three fixtures, including a 5-0 victory over Lugano last time out.
Like Club Brugge, Bodo/Glimt have also shown some quality lately, picking up eight wins from their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, they were beaten 1-0 at home by Molde in a domestic fixture last weekend.
Bodo/Glimt also have a decent record on their travels having won four of their last five away matches across all competitions. However, they were beaten 4-2 by Brann in their previous fixture on the road.

Club Brugge have the upper hand among the bookies and are priced at 5/6 by bet365 to claim the win. A victory for Bodo/Glimt is valued at 10/3 by 888Sport while a draw is set at odds of 16/5 by Paddy Power.
