Lille's form over the same length of sample is far more mixed, 8 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses, with 32 scored and 28 conceded. Heavy European defeats to Arsenal (3-0) and Galatasaray (2-4) sit alongside a solid 2-0 win over Troyes and a 1-1 draw at Monaco, underlining the inconsistency.

Bodo's attacking numbers are clearly stronger, but Lille's away performances swing between competitive and poor.

Comparative Team Statistics: Bodo/Glimt vs Lille

Champions League league phase table

Going purely off the league phase numbers available, Bodo/Glimt have taken three points from two matches, winning one and losing one, with just a single goal scored and five conceded. Lille have yet to pick up a point from their two matches, scoring twice and conceding six.

It's a small sample and doesn't show the full table, but both sides have had defensive problems at this level early on.

Players making an impact

Jens Petter Hauge has been Bodo/Glimt's main creative spark lately, with three assists in his last five appearances, which fits with how freely they've been scoring.

E. Mbappé x 1

On the discipline side, Ola Bjørtuft has picked up a red card in his last five games for Bodo, a small sign they can be careless at the back. For Lille, E. Mbappé has a red card from his only match in this sample, though that's too limited to draw firm conclusions from.

How this one could play out

Putting the attacking and defensive pictures together, there's a reasonable case for goals at both ends. Bodo have scored heavily in Europe this season, including 4-3 and 5-0 wins away from home, while also conceding five goals in their two league phase matches so far. Lille have been on the end of open, goal-filled games too, their 3-0 and 2-4 European defeats being good examples.

That said, Bodo's 1-0 home win over Dortmund shows they're capable of a tighter, more controlled performance when it suits them, so this isn't a guaranteed shootout.

Goals at both ends look more likely than a clean sheet for either side, though not certain.
