Event Preview

Lazio were considered to be the outright favorites to win the Europa League when the draw for the quarterfinal stage was made. However, they will have a huge challenge on their hands if they are to reach the final four of the competition. The Italian side were handed a 2-0 defeat in the first leg against Bodo/Glimt last week.

Lazio’s defeat against the Norwegian side was the first time that they had come up against Bodo/Glimt. However, the Italian side have winning home experience against teams from the nation after registering a 3-1 success against Rosenborg in the 2015-16 Europa League.

Bodo/Glimt have failed to win in their last six trips to Italy. Across that period, they have played out one draw and have suffered five defeats. Their most recent trip to the nation came in 2021-22, as they were beaten at the Stadio Olimpico by Jose Mourinho’s AS Roma.

Lazio have been eliminated from European competition in 12 of their last 15 ties when they have lost the first leg. The trends also enhance Bodo’s chances, as teams that have taken a two-goal advantage into a second leg have progressed in 94% of the previous encounters.


Lazio vs. Bodo/Glimt Picks

Lazio have a very reliable record at home, but they have never overturned a two-goal disadvantage in a European knockout match. Therefore, we could foresee the visitors progressing through to the next round by earning a draw in the Italian capital on Thursday.
