FC Zurich are expecting a difficult match on Thursday in Norway during the second day of the Europa League. His opponent, Bodö/Glimt, has indeed performed well in Europe for some time.
Last season, the Norwegian club caused a sensation by crushing AS Roma 6-1 in the Conference League group stage. Bodö / Glimt had even continued his career until the quarter-finals, where he fell once morest … AS Roma (2-1 / 0-4), the eventual winner of the event.
This year, the Norwegian team, who won the Cup in their country, went as far as the Champions League play-offs, where they failed once morest Dinamo Zagreb following passing the first three qualifying rounds. Reversed in the Europa League, it demonstrated its value by going 1-1 in Eindhoven once morest PSV last week.
The FCZ in very bad shape
This means that the FCZ, in bad shape in the Super League with two draws and six defeats in eight matches, will have to seriously raise the level of their game in order not to return empty-handed. Franco Foda’s men knew how to do it on the first day once morest Arsenal, losing 2-1 following a good performance once morest one of the favorites of the competition.
