Bodø / Glimt have traveled here for an interesting Europa League fight against Milan. Prepare for the match with this cup preview!

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

This stadium uses grass, unlike Bodø / Glimt's home stadium. The visitors last 14 games on grass have ended in 3 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses.

Bodø / Glimt have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Milan form and stats

Action has already taken place for Milan in Europa League as they have defeated Shamrock Rovers to reach the 3rd Qualifying Round. Last season, Milan's Europa League journey ended in the group stage.

When playing at home in the Serie A, Milan have managed 1 win, 0 draws and suffered 0 defeats from 1 games. Milan has a nice streak going on as they have played 13 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Genoa defeat 200 days ago. Milan has recorded two wins in a row here at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.

The Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 183 minutes without conceding a goal in the Serie A.

Milan's previous game was a Serie A match also played at home, ending 2-0 versus Bologna. The home side are looking to build on that result. Before that match, a Europa League win away at Shamrock Rovers.

There will be little rest for Milan after this match as they are travelling to Crotone for a Serie A game in only three days.

Milan has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 0 goals from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Bodø / Glimt form and stats

The traveling awayteam has defeated Zalgiris and Kauno Zalgiris in order to reach 3rd Qualifying Round of Europa League.

Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of Bodø / Glimt so far, with 8-2-0 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Eliteserien statistics. In general it has been a productive period now for Glimt as they haven't lost any of their last 18 games. Glimt are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played ten in a row without losing.

Glimt play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-1 victory visiting Brann. Prior to that match, a home win 3-1 against Zalgiris in the Europa League.

A quick return to home after this game, as Glimt are hosting Vålerenga in the Eliteserien only three days away.

Glimt are scoring goals for fun in their league games away this season, having clocked up more than three goals per game on average (32 goals from 10 away games). 13 goals have been conceded by Glimt in these games.

The UEFA Europa League, abbreviated as UEL and commonly referred to as just the Europa League, is an annual football club competition organised by UEFA. It is the second-tier competition for football clubs in Europa, beneath the UEFA Champions League in value and importance. Teams qualify through their performance in their national leagues and cup competitions. Some teams qualify from the Champions League; more precisely the teams who are knocked out in the playoff qualifying round and the third-place finishers of the group stage. The winner of the Europa League qualifies for the Champions League in their next competitive season.
