Match preview
Bayern München open their European campaign at home against Norwegian champions Bodo/Glimt. The German side enters this fixture in strong attacking rhythm across recent weeks, having registered victories in four of their last five matches while scoring 15 goals across that span, including a dominant 5-1 home victory over VfB Stuttgart.
Bodo/Glimt arrive in Munich having shown significant scoring potency in recent outings, finding the net 17 times in their last five competitive fixtures. However, the Norwegian side has displayed defensive vulnerability on their travels, failing to keep a clean sheet away from home and conceding an average of two goals per away match.
The visitors are also burdened by multiple squad absences, with five players including Hakon Evjen, Jostein Gundersen, and August Mikkelsen ruled out through injury. Bayern München's firepower on home soil, combined with Bodo/Glimt's aggressive style and defensive leaks, points toward a high-tempo, goal-laden encounter.
