Sporting vs Bodo/Glimt Match Preview

Sporting v Bodo/Glimt Tips, Predictions and 7/1 Bet Builder – Champions League

17 March – 17:45
Competition: UEFA Champions League
Venue: Estádio José Alvalade


Sporting v Bodo/Glimt Preview

Sporting CP face a huge challenge to keep their Champions League campaign alive when they host FK Bodø/Glimt in the second leg of their round-of-16 tie in Lisbon.

The Portuguese side were comfortably beaten 3–0 in Norway when the teams met in the first leg, marking the first-ever meeting between the clubs.

However, Sporting can take encouragement from their strong home record against Norwegian opposition in European competitions. The Lions have won all three previous UEFA home games against Norwegian teams while keeping clean sheets in each match.

Sporting should also be refreshed heading into the match after their weekend league fixture with CD Tondela was postponed.

Meanwhile, Bodø/Glimt arrive in Lisbon full of confidence after a remarkable run in Europe. The Norwegian champions have won five consecutive Champions League matches, including impressive results against elite opposition.

During the closing rounds of the competition’s league phase, the Norwegian side drew away at Borussia Dortmundbefore recording notable victories over Manchester City and Atlético Madrid to secure their playoff place.

Goals have been a consistent feature of Bodø/Glimt’s European campaign. They have scored at least twice in nine of their last eleven Champions League matches, and the visitors head to Portugal after scoring exactly two goals in each of their last five competitive away games, winning four of those fixtures.

Team News and Predicted Line-Ups

Sporting CP Team News

Sporting welcome back Maximiliano Araújo and Pedro Gonçalves after both served suspensions in the first leg.

However, Fotis Ioannidis and Ricardo Mangas remain sidelined with knee injuries, while Geovany Quenda continues his recovery from foot surgery.

Luis Suárez has scored three goals in his last two Champions League games at José Alvalade and is expected to lead the attack again.

Sporting possible starting XI:
Silva; Fresneda, Diomande, Inácio, Araújo; Hjulmand, Morita; Catamo, Trincão, Gonçalves; Suárez


Bodø/Glimt Team News

Bodø/Glimt striker Kasper Høgh has been in excellent scoring form, finding the net five times in his last five Champions League appearances.

Manager Kjetil Knutsen has named an unchanged lineup in each of the last five European matches and is expected to keep faith with the same side again.

Bodø/Glimt possible starting XI:
Haikin; Sjovold, Bjortuft, Gundersen, Bjorkan; Evjen, Berg, Fet; Blomberg, Høgh, Hauge

Sporting vs Bodo/Glimt Prediction

Sporting will likely push forward aggressively in an attempt to reduce the deficit, but Bodø/Glimt’s attacking confidence and counter-attacking ability make them dangerous opponents.

While the Portuguese side may win on the night, overturning the three-goal deficit looks unlikely.

Prediction: Sporting CP 2–1 Bodø/Glimt

Conclusion

Given Bodø/Glimt’s impressive scoring record in the UEFA Champions League and Sporting’s need to chase the game, goals at both ends look likely. Sporting may edge the match at home, but the Norwegian side remain well placed to progress overall.
