The Champions League playoff return leg between Bodo/Glimt and NEC Nijmegen takes place this Tuesday at Aspmyra Stadion. Sitting atop the Eliteserien standings after the first 17 matchdays, the Norwegian club has won their last six league games. They’ve been just as impressive on the European stage. After defeating Union Saint-Gilloise in the third round of Champions League qualifying (aggregate score: 6-5 after extra time), they are well on their way to advancing in the playoffs. Last week, the team coached by Kjetil Knutsen had little trouble defeating NEC Nijmegen on the road (1-3). They expect to continue their run this Tuesday evening.
A pleasant surprise in last season’s Eredivisie after finishing in third place, NEC Nijmegen earned the right to compete in the Champions League qualifiers. They made a big splash in their opening match by eliminating Olympiacos (aggregate score: 2-1). The Dutch club, however, suffered a major setback in the first leg of the playoff. They were already down by three goals before the hour mark in front of their home fans. Dick Schreuder’s men likely have little hope left as they head to Norway for the second leg.
