Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham Hotspur
Tyler Morris; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Both Teams to Score
| |
1/2 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Bodo/Glimt, boasting eight straight home wins, aim to overturn a two-goal deficit against travel-weary Spurs, who struggle defensively without Maddison. Expect a high-scoring, fiercely contested second leg. | |
Key Stats:
- Spurs’ Struggles: Tottenham have won just two of their last 10 away games in all competitions.
- Home Fortress: Bodo/Glimt have won each of their last eight home matches, including five straight in Europe.
- Fast Starters: Bodo/Glimt have scored within the first 20 minutes in each of their last three home games.
Rationale
Bodo/Glimt head into this critical Europa League second leg boasting an intimidating home record, having triumphed in their last eight matches at Aspmyra Stadion, including a stunning 2-0 win over Lazio in the previous round. Their ability to dominate at home has been crucial to their European success, with 15 goals scored across their last five home ties in this competition.
Tottenham, by contrast, have struggled on the road, managing just two wins in their last 10 away outings. Although Spurs hold a two-goal cushion from the first leg, their inconsistent away form and defensive vulnerabilities make this a tricky test. The absence of creative linchpin James Maddison could further stifle their attacking flow, with their last clean sheet on the road coming over a month ago.
With Bodo/Glimt desperate to claw back the deficit and Spurs lacking confidence away from North London, this clash promises goals from both sides.
