Bodo/Glimt v Jagiellonia Bialystok

Bodo/Glimt vs Jagiellonia Preview

It's advantage Bodo/Glimt heading into this 2nd leg of the 3rd qualifying round tie in the Champions League against Polish outfit Jagiellonia Bialystok following last week's 1-0 win at the Stadion Miejski, and the Norwegian hosts also bring an encouraging seven-game unbeaten run in all competitions into this upcoming return leg at their Aspmyra Stadion, whilke Jagiellonia will be eager to return to winning ways and turn this tie on its head.

Bodo/Glimt followed up last week's Champions League win with a point gained on the road in a 1-1 draw away from home at Viking in the domestic Norwegian Eliteserien where the hosts have produced an impressive campaign to date, sitting eight points clear at the top of the Norwegian top flight table.

Five wins from their last seven games overall in all competitions will also give the hosts plenty of reasons to be upbeat about their chances of putting this 3rd qualifying tie in the Champions League to bed at their Aspmyra Stadion especially as Kjetil Knutsen's side have produced some impressive results on home soil in recent weeks.

Victories against Odd 3-1 and Haugesund 4-2 in the Eliteserien along with a previous comprehensive 4-0 win against Rigas in the Champions League place Bodo/Glimt in the driving seat ahead of Tuesday night's clash.

Jagiellonia Bialystok had previously racked up an impressive five wins on the trot in all competitions prior to last week's disappointing 1-0 defeat at home to their Norwegian counterparts in the 1st leg of this 3rd qualifying round tie, which consisted of Polish Ekstraklasa wins against Puszca Niepolomice, Radomiak Radom and Stal Mielec.

In addition, previous wins in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League saw Jagiellonia pick up home and away wins against Lithuanian club Panevezys in a decisive 7-1 win on aggregate, so the visitors also have reason to believe they stand a decent chance of gaining a result here at the Aspmyra Stadion.

However, results away from home have been far more modest as Jagiellonia have managed to capture just four wins in their last 10 outings on the road in all competitions while also slipping to four defeats in the process as well.

This inconsistent streak away from home may therefore be the undoing of Jagiellonia who now face a tough and tricky trip to Norway for this return leg on Tuesday night.

Bodo/Glimt v Jagiellonia Verdict

Having registered a 1-0 win away from home in last week's 1st leg, Bodo/Glimt now look to be in the driving seat ahead of this return leg where they will enjoy home advantage at their Aspmyra Stadion, and this should be enough to see the hosts over the line.
