Thursday | 19:00 UTC | Aspmyra Stadion | UEFA Europa League Semi-Final, Second Leg

Tottenham arrive in Norway with a 3–1 first-leg advantage, but Bodo/Glimt’s formidable home record means this tie is far from over. The Norwegians have already claimed big European scalps in their backyard. Can Spurs avoid becoming the next?

Europa League Semi-Final: Bodo/Glimt v Spurs Preview

Bodo/Glimt were second-best for long stretches in North London, but a late goal gives them hope ahead of the return leg. At home, they’ve been relentless. The reigning Eliteserien champions have won 6 of their last 9 in all competitions, taking down Besiktas, FC Twente, Olympiakos and Lazio en route to the semi-finals.

Their attacking threat is real, but so are the defensive concerns. They’ve kept just 3 clean sheets across 15 Europa League matches this season, a worrying stat when facing an opponent of Tottenham’s attacking calibre.

Ange Postecoglou’s side controlled the first leg, but letting in a late away goal was a frustrating lapse. Tottenham have scored in their last 8 games in all competitions and will be confident of doing so again here, especially with Bodo’s shaky backline.

Still, Spurs haven’t travelled well. They’ve lost 7 of their last 10 away matches, including league defeats that have left them scrambling for consistency. This won’t be a routine outing, especially in freezing conditions and on a synthetic pitch.

The key will be balance: a professional performance without chasing goals recklessly. One away goal likely kills the tie.
