NEC Nijmegen - Bodo/Glimt
NEC Nijmegen host Bodo/Glimt in Champions League qualifying
NEC Nijmegen host Bodo/Glimt at the Goffertstadion on Wednesday evening in Champions League qualifying. The Norwegian visitors arrive with four wins and a draw from their last five recent matches, while NEC have won three, drawn one and lost one over the same span.
Recent form points to contrasting paths
NEC's last five recent matches have produced three wins, one draw and one defeat. The most recent of those was a 4-1 win over WIL on 15 August, following a 2-1 victory against OLY four days earlier. Before that came a 1-2 defeat to TEL, a goalless draw with OLY and a 2-1 win over GAE in May.
Bodo/Glimt have won four and drawn one of their last five. Their most recent outing was a 3-2 win against USG on 11 August, having beaten VAL 2-1 three days before that. Earlier in the month they drew 3-3 with USG, and in late July recorded back-to-back victories: 4-0 against LIL and 3-0 over SAN.
No previous meetings on record
The two clubs have no recorded head-to-head history, so Wednesday's tie at the Goffertstadion will be the first time they meet in any competition. NEC go into the match having scored six goals across their last two recent matches, while Bodo/Glimt have found the net in each of their last five.
