Match preview
Seven days after beating Bodo/Glimt, Arsenal travel to face the same opposition again on Thursday night as they aim to take another step towards qualification for the knockout stage of the Europa League.
After a 3-0 victory at the Emirates Stadium last week, Mikel Arteta believed the return fixture will be a challenging one as the game will take place in the arctic circle on an artificial playing surface.
Bodo/Glimt come into this game on the back of a 4-1 win over Sandefjord in the Eliteserien. A second-half brace from midfielder Hugo Vetlesen and goals from left-back Brice Wembangomo and attacker Amahl Pellegrino sealed the deal for Kjetil Knutsen’s Bodo/Glimt. Dutch centre-back Quint Jansen scored the goal for Sandefjord.
Arsenal, on the other hand, beat Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool 3-2 in the English Premier League. A brace from forward Bukayo Saka and a goal from Brazilian forward Gabriel Martinelli secured the win for Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal. Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunez and Brazilian attacker Roberto Firmino scored the goals for Liverpool.
