Just One H2H Meeting so Far
These two sides battled in the Champions League main stage as well, Bodo/Glimt snatching a point in Germany in quite entertaining contest.
Hosts Hoping to Repeat their UCL Run from the Last Season
Bodo/Glimt kept their net intact for 47 minutes against Bayern Munich in the UCL opening round but then collapsed defensively, suffering a heavy 5-0 loss while failing to register a single shot on target.
The Yellow Horde also faced difficulties on their domestic front, losing 2-1 to Brann on 20th September, which caused them to drop to second position behind Viking with eight rounds left to be played.
They returned to winning ways last weekend after beating Kristiansund 3-1 in front of the home crowd, ending this clash with 3.97-0.21 expected goals, 78% possession and 25-4 shots.
BVB Having a Strong Campaign so Far
Borussia Dortmund collected three points in their UCL opener, deservedly beating Villarreal 3-2 at Signal Iduna Park where Serhou Guirassy was the hero netting a brace.
Speaking of their Bundesliga affairs, BVB kicked things off with a 2-0 win over Hamburg, followed by victories against Hoffenheim 3-2, Paderborn 3-0 and Stuttgart 1-0. Fabio Silva and Guirassy scored four goals each in these encounters and added a couple of assists to their names as well.
This fantastic streak came to an end last Friday where Niko Kovac's side had a 2-0 lead against Werder Bremen heading into stoppage time but shockingly conceded two goals, the game ending in a 2-2 draw.

Bodo/Glimt have to adjust their defensive formation as centre-back Odin Luras Bjortuft serves a suspension following his red card against Bayern Munich. They have no injury concerns at the moment.

Borussia Dortmund have to cope without injured right-back Julian Ryerson alongside long-term absentee Emre Can, while Nico Schlotterbeck and Ramy Bensebaini are available after serving suspension in the previous round.

Verdict
Both sides were very efficient in their league games this season, while last season's h2h clash in the UCL ended in a 2-2 draw in Germany. I am predicting a similar outcome on Wednesday.
Both Bodo's and Dortmund's leading scorers are worth backing considering their recent forms and numbers.
