Bodø/Glimt v Tottenham

📅

Kick Off: Thursday 8th May at 20:00

🏆

Competition: Europa League


Tottenham venture north into the Arctic Circle to face Bodø/Glimt in the second leg of their European semi-final. They carry the edge from a first-leg victory in London (3-1), but still have work to do to progress to the final.

A late Bodø/Glimt goal in the capital, combined with their dominant home form, suggests this could be anything but straightforward. Add in potential injury concerns for Spurs, and the door remains very much open for a dramatic twist in this tie.

While the numbers may not immediately scream BTTS, context is everything. Bodø/Glimt have won eight straight home games in all competitions, seven of those by multiple goals, which includes a standout 2-0 win over Lazio in the quarter-final first leg. Despite keeping four consecutive clean sheets, few teams have managed to shut out Spurs in Europe.

Tottenham have scored in 12 of their 13 European outings this campaign, and if Bodø strike first, the visitors will almost certainly respond. With the hosts needing at least two goals to force extra time, expect an open, attacking encounter with both sides contributing.

Both Teams to Score, Each Team to have 3+ Corners & Each Team to Receive 2+ Cards

Both Teams to Score:

As mentioned above, Bodø know they need to score twice at least here, they showed in the first leg that they can hurt Tottenham. Ange Postecoglou's side have been regular scorers in this competition, scoring in 12 of their 13 Europa League matches. Spurs are on a run of scoring in eight consecutive matches in all competitions.

Each Team to have 3+ Corners:

Bodø/Glimt’s need to chase the game naturally boosts their corner potential, especially given their strong home metrics where they average 6.43 corners per game in Europe. Just one visiting side has failed to reach three corners at their stadium and Tottenham, who average 5.86 corners per game on the road, are unlikely to sit back. If the game state shifts and Spurs need to respond, expect them to hit this line comfortably.

Each Team to Receive 2+ Cards:

Tensions are always expected to escalate in the second leg of a European semi-final. Tottenham have received 2+ cards in four of their last five away games, including three yellows in their second leg quarter-final tie away at Frankfurt.

While Bodø are typically more disciplined at home, chasing the game - or even defending a potential lead late on - can prompt rash challenges or time-wasting, making this line very reachable from either side. Bodø received two cards in the first leg, too.

Høgh has hit the ground running in the Eliteserien, scoring four in four league games and seven in the Europa League, making him the joint-top scorer in the competition.

🟡 Ulrik Saltnes

Saltnes isn’t just the creative hub, he’s also the most active shooter for Bodø, averaging 2.63 shots per 90 in Europe, nearly one more than any other teammate.

He scored in the reverse fixture to keep the tie alive and bagged a brace at home in the first leg against Lazio in the quarter-finals. A player for the big occasion, Saltnes offers value at this price, too.

Cristian Romero

Romero’s combative style has resurfaced since returning from injury. He's averaging 1.12 fouls per 90 this season and has committed at least one in each of his last seven starts, and nine of 10 since his return.

In Europe, his discipline often dips further, committing 2, 1, 3, 1, and 2 fouls in his five appearances. His aggressive nature makes him a prime candidate for another foul here.

💻 Bodø/Glimt v Tottenham Form and Tactics

Tottenham enter the second leg of their Europa League semi-final against Bodø/Glimt with a 3-1 advantage, but history warns them not to take the task lightly. While Ange Postecoglou’s side dominated the first leg, a late strike from Ulrik Saltnes has kept the tie alive, especially considering Bodø’s fearsome home form.

The Norwegian side has won all three of their UEL knockout home games this season, and across all competitions in 2025, they boast a perfect six-game home winning streak, each by multiple goals.

Spurs rank 2nd in pass accuracy and 7th in total accurate passes, and their preference for short build-up play, reflected in their competition-low long ball count, has allowed them to dominate possession.

Offensively, they remain a steady threat, with the most corners and fourth-most touches in the opposition box. They often draw fouls in dangerous areas, having already won four penalties in the campaign. Defensively, while they’ve kept only one clean sheet in knockout play, they haven’t conceded more than a single goal in any leg.

However, the potential absence of James Maddison and uncertainty around both Solanke and Son could blunt their attacking fluency. This may prove costly against a Bodø side that thrives in front of their home crowd.

They are the joint second-best team for xG (alongside Tottenham) in the competition (23.2), rank 2nd for touches in the opposition box, and are prolific creators of high-quality chances. Yet, their defensive vulnerabilities persist, they’ve conceded the highest xGA in the tournament and often rely on high defensive volume (tackles and clearances) to survive. The second leg promises tactical contrast, Tottenham’s structured control v Bodø’s high-tempo aggression.
