Tottenham travel to Norway for a tricky Champions League clash against Bodo/Glimt, with Thomas Frank’s men looking to extend their perfect start in Europe while putting recent domestic frustrations behind them. Here’s how to watch the clash between Tottenham and Bodo/Glimt.

After back-to-back draws in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur’s focus now switches to European football and the demands of the UEFA Champions League under the lights.

They opened their campaign with a narrow but important 1-0 win over Villarreal, which keeps them sitting with a perfect record despite having played just once in the league phase.

This midweek encounter, however, will feel familiar, as Tottenham are once again lining up against Bodo/Glimt, the Norwegian side they dispatched with relative ease in last season’s Europa League semi-final, and Spurs fans would be expecting more of the same this week.

When and where is the game?

Tottenham face Bodo/Glimt at the Aspmyra Stadion on Tuesday, 29 September 2025, with kick-off set for 20:00 (UK time).

How to watch Tottenham vs Bodo/Glimt in the UK

Supporters in the United Kingdom will be able to watch Tottenham vs Bodo/Glimt live on TNT Sports 2 and TNT Sports 6.

Tottenham and Bodo/Glimt team news

Coming into this tie, Bodo/Glimt will be without several key players, as Goalkeeper Magnus Brondbo is unavailable due to international duty, Ola Brynhildsen is sidelined with a knee injury until mid-October, Ole Blomberg is expected to be out until early October with a thigh problem, while captain Ulrik Saltnes is struggling with illness.

Tottenham also have their own injury worries to contend with, as Dominic Solanke and Kolo Muani are missing for the trip, while Yves Bissouma, Kota Takai, and Ben Davies have only just returned to training.

James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski and Radu Dragusin remain ruled out as they continue their recovery. Captain Cristian Romero was left at home as a precaution.

Spurs Web prediction for Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham

It is never straightforward to travel away in Europe, especially when form has dipped, and Spurs arrive without a win in their last two league matches.

The trip to Norway adds another layer of difficulty, given the artificial turf, but last season Tottenham proved their superiority over Bodo/Glimt across two legs, and they will expect to do the same again here.

We anticipate a reaction from Frank’s side following the frustrating draw with Wolves at the weekend, although the game is unlikely to be plain sailing.

As Tottenham Hotspur plot to reignite their interest in Morgan Rogers, a new report has shed light on what Aston Villa plan on doing with their star man.

It was widely reported in the summer that Tottenham wanted to test Villa’s resolve to hold onto Rogers.

In fact, it was even suggested that Spurs were ready to break the bank for the Villa star, but Unai Emery’s men refused to come to the negotiating table for the England international.

Predictably, reports have already surfaced that Tottenham could try again to land Rogers in January, with the Lilywhites wanting to signal their ambition in the post-Daniel Levy era.

Aston Villa are taking action to prevent Morgan Rogers’ departure amid Tottenham interest

Football Insider have now claimed that the Villans have now opened talks with Rogers over a new long-term deal in an effort to ward off his suitors.

The report says that the 23-year-old was on the radar of both Spurs and Chelsea in the summer, but the Midlands club rebuffed the London duo’s attempts to sign the player.

The former Middlesbrough man only signed a new deal at Villa Park last November, with his current deal running until 2030.

However, despite this, Villa are ready to offer him a pay rise and are looking to tie him down to a new contract. The report adds that Emery’s men have no intention of letting the attacking midfielder leave in January.

Tottenham may have to wait until the summer for Rogers

A couple of weeks ago, journalist Pete O’Rourke confirmed that Tottenham remain one of Rogers’ biggest admirers, and backed the Lilywhites to try again for the England man

However, he made it clear that Villa will not consider selling their star man in January and that Spurs may have to wait until next summer to have a chance of landing the 23-year-old.

Villa have made a poor start to the season, and should they miss out on European qualification, Rogers may be tempted to push for an exit next summer.

Journalist George Sessions noticed that Tottenham Hotspur did something unusual in training on Monday to prepare themselves for their upcoming Champions League tie against Bodo/Glimt.

Tottenham will be hoping to make it two wins from two in the Champions League when they head to Norway to take on Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday.

The Lilywhites have pleasant memories of the Aspmyra Stadion, winning 2-0 at the ground back in May on their way to Europa League glory.

With Tottenham facing a tricky end to the league phase of the Champions League, Frank will be desperate for his side to get three points in Norway, and it turns out that he is leaving no stone unturned to prepare his players for the conditions they will face north of the Arctic Circle.

What Guglielmo Vicario and Antonin Kinsky did during Tottenham training on Monday

Bodo/Glimt have an outstanding home record in European competitions of late, and that is partly down to the fact that they play on an artificial pitch.

Opposition sides have usually found it difficult to cope with the conditions at the Aspmyra Stadion, but the conditions will not come as a shock to the Spurs players, who played there less than five months ago.

However, it appears Frank is taking no chances as journalist George Sessions reveals that Tottenham’s goalkeepers trained on an artificial pitch at Hotspur Way on Monday in the lead up to the tie.

Supercomputer predicts Tottenham’s chances of beating Bodo/Glimt

According to Opta’s Supercomputer, Tottenham have a 43.6 per cent chance of beating Bodo/Glimt, while the home side have been given a 32.3 per cent chance of getting all three points.

Opta’s algorithm predicts that Spurs will finish in ninth place in the league phase, which would mean that they just miss out on direct qualification to the round of 16 and would have to play an additional knockout round.

However, should Tottenham have six points on the board from their first two matches, Frank will believe that his side has a great chance of finishing in the top eight, with Monaco and Copenhagen their next two opponents.

Tottenham Hotspur have been left with a fresh injury concern after a senior player was left behind in North London ahead of the club’s Champions League tie with Bodo/Glimt in Norway.

Thomas Frank will be looking for a swift response from his Tottenham Hotspur team when they face Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday night.

While Spurs have not suffered defeat in their last four outings, back-to-back draws in the Premier League feel like a missed opportunity, particularly with points dropped against bottom-of-the-table Wolves.

However, as is always the case in football, there is the chance to put things right quickly, and Tottenham will not have to wait long, with Bodo/Glimt their next opponents in the Champions League.

Cristian Romero ruled out of Tottenham squad to face Bodo/Glimt

Thomas Frank has been speaking to the media ahead of Spurs’ clash against Glimt in the league phase of the UEFA Champions League.

The Spurs boss has since provided an injury update on his Tottenham squad, confirming that Dominic Solanke is set to miss out once again following minor surgery, while Kolo Randal Muani is progressing well after picking up a dead leg.

Frank also revealed that Cristian Romero took no part in first-team training for precautionary reasons, raising concern over his availability ahead of the European tie.

Those fears have now been confirmed, with Alasdair Gold reporting that the Tottenham captain has not travelled with the rest of the squad for their matchday two Champions League tie.

Frank said when asked for further information on Romero’s absence: “Romero was just a precaution.”

Spurs eye response as they return to Norway

Spurs made the trip to the Arctic Circle on Monday afternoon as they prepare to take on Bodo/Glimt for the third time this year.

Last time out, Tottenham secured a 2-0 victory in the Europa League at the Aspmyra Stadion, with Pedro Porro and Dominic Solanke on target for Ange Postecoglou’s side.

Thomas Frank has delivered a worrying injury update as Tottenham prepare for a crucial Champions League clash away at Bodo/Glimt.

Thomas Frank is set to manage in only his second ever game in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night, and this time he takes his side on a demanding trip away from home.

Tottenham Hotspur make the long journey to the Arctic Circle to face Bodo/Glimt in matchday two of the League phase, and Frank will be hoping his side can build momentum by making it two wins from two in Europe, following their opening victory against Villarreal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The two clubs have met twice in recent years, with Tottenham boasting a perfect record, having come out on top in both of their previous encounters with Glimt.

Frank’s men were held to a draw in their last Premier League outing, and the manager will be eager to see a stronger response from his squad as they turn their focus back to European competition.

Speaking to Tottenham’s official channel, Frank has now provided an update on his Tottenham squad, with some key names now stepping up their recovery work.

Footage from today’s training session revealed that Yves Bissouma, Kota Takai and Ben Davies have returned to the grass; however, forwards Dominic Solanke and Randal Kolo Muani, who have both been carrying injuries, remain out.

Frank still has long-term absentees, with Radu Dragusin, Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison all sidelined.

Cristian Romero also missed training on Monday, but Frank ensured it was a precaution more than anything.

Speaking on the fitness of his squad ahead of the Bodo/Glimt tie, Frank told the Tottenham media team: “Start with Dom, he got that ankle issue that’s been bothering him.

“We’ve decided to make a minor surgery, a small procedure, he misses today. We’ll know more after the international break.

“Randal Kolo Muani we’re on top of his dead leg so that’s good and Cuti [missing open training] was just a precaution.”

Tottenham academy starlet Mikey Moore has not been happy with the role he has been handed at Rangers so far, with the Lilywhites now contemplating a big decision.

Things have not gone according to plan for the 18-year-old since his loan move to Ibrox, as he has started just two league games so far.

The versatile attacker is yet to get on the score sheet, but Moore did get plaudits for his performance against Hibernian last week, picking up an assist as Rangers emerged 2-0 winners.

The youngster would have had hopes of playing in the Champions League, but Moore will now have to settle for Europa League football this season after the Scottish side crashed out in the qualifying round.

Why Moore is unhappy with his role at Rangers

Football Insider have now claimed that the teenager is unhappy with his role at the Scottish club so far.

It is revealed that Russel Martin, who has deployed Moore in both flanks, has instructed the Tottenham Hotspur youngster to tuck inside rather than stay outside.

Sources with knowledge of the player’s situation believe this tactical instruction is the reason why we have not seen the best of Moore in a Rangers shirt yet.

Tottenham have the option to end the loan spell in January, and it is asserted that the North London club could seriously consider activating the option and ending his stay in Glasgow prematurely.

Tottenham may explore a different loan move for Mikey Moore

Football Insider say that if Spurs do recall Moore, the likely outcome is that the club will send the youngster on loan elsewhere for the second half of the season.

It is explained that the winger will have no shortage of suitors in the winter if he is made available on loan.

The outlet points out that many EFL clubs, including Birmingham City and Middlesbrough, wanted to sign Moore in the summer, and suggests that those clubs could reignite their interest if the Spurs man becomes available.

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly set to add to their defensive stocks in January, with two experienced Premier League centre-backs in their sights.

According to various reports, Spurs wanted to add another centre-back to the squad in the summer, but they were unable to do so before the window slammed shut.

There have already been suggestions that a top-class defender would be one of Spurs’ top priorities in January.

We have heard over recent days that Tottenham may explore a move for Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite, and now, two other names have also been mooted as targets for Spurs.

Thomas Frank could raid Brentford for Tottenham recruits in January

This update comes from TEAMtalk, who say that Spurs have already put aside a portion of their budget to strengthen in central defence.

The report claims that Tottenham Hotspur kept a close eye on Brentford defender Nathan Collins in the summer, and the club are expected to look at the Bees captain again in the winter as Thomas Frank eyes a reunion.

The publication adds that Nathan Ake was also in Spurs’ sights in the summer, and the City star is another player the Lilywhites may explore a deal for when the transfer window reopens.

Frank will soon receive a major defensive boost

The Tottenham boss has so far been restricted to using just Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, and Kevin Danso at centre-back due to the injuries Spurs have in their squad.

In fact, Frank even played Joao Palhinha in the heart of defence against Doncaster Rovers last week, and the experiment worked.

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly identified a Bundesliga veteran as a potential option to replace James Maddison.

Although Maddison is making quick progress from his ACL injury, the attacking midfielder is expected to miss the majority of the season.

Thomas Frank is confident that Dejan Kulusevski will be back on the pitch before the end of the year, but the Dane has been hesitant to use new signing Xavi Simons as a number ten.

It has now emerged that Spurs are ready to pounce on an experienced Bundesliga attacking midfielder in the January window.

Tottenham eyeing move for Borussia Dortmund star

This report comes from WA.de, who say that Spurs have set their sights on Julian Brandt ahead of the January window.

The report points out that Brandt remains an important part of the Dortmund side and any mid-season move is thus ‘completely unexpected’ at this stage.

However, it is pointed out that the German international is yet to sign a new deal at Signal Iduna Park, with his current contract running out next summer.

This has piqued the interest of Tottenham Hotspur, who want to bring him through the door in January to fill the void left by Maddison’s injury.

What Julian Brandt and Borussia Dortmund are thinking about Spurs’ interest

The report says that a move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium would be an ‘attractive option’ for Brandt from a sporting perspective.

It is said that the move would also have financial ‘temptation’ for the 29-year-old, who would earn a lot more in North London than he does in Dortmund.

Additionally, the publication asserts that any offer from Spurs would also be ‘financially attractive’ to Dortmund since the Bundesliga side is staring at the possibility of losing him on a free next summer.

Tottenham Hotspur sent scouts to run the rule over a Brazilian starlet this weekend, but they will face competition from one of the biggest clubs in Europe for the player’s signature.

There was a clear shift in Tottenham Hotspur’s transfer strategy in the summer, with the Lilywhites predominantly signing players with experience in the Premier League or the other top-five leagues.

However, the club showed with their permanent signing of Mathys Tel and their acquisition of Kota Takai that they are still continuing to keep an eye on the best young talents across the globe.

In the summer, some sources also claimed that Tottenham were considering a move for Vasco Da Gama winger Rayan, and it appears that the club’s interest in the youngster has not gone away.

Tottenham scouted Rayan this weekend, but they were not alone

According to a report in NT Vascainos, scouts from Tottenham watched Vasco Da Gama beat Cruzerio 2-0 on Saturday, and they were there to watch Rayan.

They would have certainly been impressed by what they saw as the 19-year-old delivered another excellent performance and got on the scoresheet, which is his 12th goal of the season across all competitions.

However, they were not the only ones to run the rule over Rayan, with scouts from Barcelona also being in attendance. The report reveals that Zenit Saint Petersburg are also involved in the race for the teenager.

Tottneham could make an offer which falls short of Rayan’s release

NT Vascainos reveal that Rayan’s current deal at Vasco runs until the end of 2026, and he has a release clause of €40m (£34.3m) in his contract.

The outlet claims that the London side have been extremely impressed with the winger and are expected to present an offer in the region of €30m (£25.7m).

The publication explains that Vasco only owns 70 per cent of Rayan’s rights, with the other 30 per cent owned by the player. The Rio de Janeiro club are hoping to make him one of the most expensive sales in their history.

Opta’s Supercomputer has revealed whether Tottenham Hotspur are favourites to beat Bodo/Glimt and make it two wins in two in the Champions League.

Tottenham Hotspur got their Champions League campaign off to a winning start, overcoming Villarreal 1-0 at home two weeks ago.

However, the Lilywhites were certainly not at their fluent best against the Spanish side, with Frank admitting that Spurs struggled offensively against Villarreal.

Unfortunately for the Dane, he saw his side flatter to deceive in attack against Wolves as well, with Tottenham needing a late screamer from Joao Palhinha to salvage a point against the team who are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table.

Tottenham are slight favourites against Bodo/Glimt

Frank will be hoping for a much better showing from his players as they resume Champions League action near the Arctic Circle on Tuesday.

According to Opta’s Supercomputer, Tottenham are favourites to win against Bodo’Glimt, but only by a small margin.

The North London club have been handed a 43.6 per cent chance of getting all three points while the home side have been handed a 32.3 per cent chance.

That leaves the draw as the least likely result at 24.1 per cent, and Tottenham will take heart from the fact that they beat Bodo/Glimt at their home ground in last season’s Europa League semifinal.

What are Tottenham’s chances of qualifying for the Champions League knockout phase?

Opta’s algorithm predicts that Tottenham will finish ninth in the league phase of the Champions League, amassing an expected 13.84 points.

That will mean that the Lilywhites will have to pay an additional knockout fixture, with the top eight sealing direct passage to the round of 16.

Opta have given Tottenham a 54.98 per cent chance of qualifying for the next round and a 37.74 per cent chance of making it to the last sixteen.
