The first match in Norway ended in a convincing 3-0 victory for Bodø-Glimt, and now Sporting Lisbon faces the incredible task of bounce-back at home. The hosts need to score at least three times to force overtime, meaning they'll be attacking with force from the start.
Sporting has been scoring consistently in recent matches (two goals against Braga, three each against Moreirense and Estoril), but the first game against the Norwegians clearly demonstrated their defense's inability to counter fast attacks. Bodø-Glimt, however, are on a roll: the Norwegians are racking up goals in every match (three against Sporting, two against Molde, and five against Inter in two matches) and are playing boldly even on the road against Europe's top clubs.
Sporting will score at home in a desperate attempt to claw back, but the home team's defense will likely falter against the visitors' accelerating attack. Goals are inevitable in this match.
