The surprise package of this year’s competition, Bodø/Glimt have made a name for themselves in Europe with their high-pressing, fluid attacking football. Based in a remote town above the Arctic Circle, the club has built a strong unit capable of troubling elite teams — especially at home.
Manager Kjetil Knutsen favors a 4-3-3 setup with intense pressing, quick ball circulation, and overlapping fullbacks. Despite the deficit, they are unlikely to change their attacking identity.
Key Strengths:
Key Players:
Under Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham have found attacking rhythm and tactical clarity. The 3–1 win in London showcased their ability to punish defensive errors and create space with width and pace. In Europe, Spurs often adopt a flexible 4-2-3-1 or aggressive 4-3-3, designed to control transitions and break quickly.
Tottenham know they must weather an early storm in Norway, but with talents like Son and Maddison, they’re more than capable of hitting on the break.
Key Strengths:
Key Players:
The first leg was a controlled performance from Tottenham, who capitalized on defensive gaps and walked away with a two-goal cushion. Still, Bodø/Glimt’s home form can’t be ignored — they’ve taken down European heavyweights before in Norway.
Expect the hosts to push forward aggressively in the first 20–30 minutes. If they score early, the momentum could shift dramatically. But Spurs’ quality on the break and ability to manage tempo may prove decisive. This should be a fast-paced, physical match under the Arctic lights.
Tottenham are expected to control this match with their superior squad depth and attacking efficiency. Bodø/Glimt are strong at home but face a steep task after a 1–3 first-leg defeat.
