Bodo Glimt set to face Qarabag in Europa League: Record Goal Difference

On November 7, Bodo Glimt, the team that will host Qarabag in the Europa League, will play their 85th European match.

As reported by Idman.biz, before facing Qarabag in the group stage, the Norwegian club has won 41 matches, drawn 15, and lost 28, holding a goal difference of 157-109.

In the Europa League, Bodo Glimt will play their 13th match, with an equal record of wins and losses, alongside 2 draws, and a goal difference of 21-18.
In Champions League qualifications, the team has reached the 4th qualifying round twice but was eliminated by Dinamo Zagreb (2022/23) and Red Star Belgrade (2024/25), despite winning at home. Two years ago, the team recorded an 8-0 victory over Linfield in the Champions League.

In their UEFA Europa League 2024/2025 league phase campaign that same season, Bodo Glimt only secured 1 win and 1 draw in 6 matches.

The team's biggest achievement in continental competitions came in the 2021/22 season, when they reached the quarter-finals of the Conference League. After a 2-1 home win over Roma, they lost 4-0 in the return leg, ending their dreams of reaching the semifinals.

Last season, Bodo Glimt started in the Conference League’s 2nd qualification round, progressing through all qualification stages and groups, eventually reaching the 1/16 final, where they were knocked out by Ajax after two draws and a loss in extra time.

In the current season, Bodo Glimt defeated Latvian RFS and Polish Jagiellonia in both legs of the Champions League 2nd qualifying round, but were eliminated by Red Star Belgrade in the playoffs. They then continued their journey in the Europa League and secured a 7-point finish in the group stage with victories over Porto and Braga, and a draw with Union.
