Tottenham look to continue their winning start in the UEFA Champions League as they head to Norway to face Bodo/Glimt in the second game week. Last time out, Tottenham were not fully convincing in their 1-0 win over Villareal, but the value of getting three points on the board immediately cannot be understated.
Bodo/Glimt fought back from 2-0 down away at Slavia Prague to snatch a point from the jaws of defeat when they equalised in the 90th minute. The goal was worthy to win any game, let alone equalise, as Sondre Brunstad Fet thumped his volley in off the underside of the bar.
Now the two teams look to build on the momentum they have in the competition to get more points this week.

Bodo/Glimt team news
The Norwegian side faces a nervous wait to see if centre-back Brede Moe and right-winger Bassi will be fit enough to play on Tuesday against Spurs. Both players came off with suspected groin injuries in Bodo/Glimt’s 3-1 victory over Odd in the NM Cup.
Both Ola Brynhildsen and Jostein Maurstad Gundersen missed the game against Odd, and it remains to be seen if they will be fit for Tuesday as well. If they are injured, they will join Captain Ulrik Saltnes on the sidelines for the game.
Bodo/Glimt predicted lineup vs Spurs, (4-3-3)
Coach: Kjetil Knutsen
Lund; Sjovold, Bjortuft, Nielsen, Aleesami; Fet, Berg, Auklend; Blomberg, Hogh, Hauge.
Spurs team news
Tottenham Hotspur will most likely be without both Dominic Solanke and Randal Kolo Muani for their trip to Norway, with both strikers' injuries taking longer to heal than the team originally thought. With both of them out and Matys Tel not in the Champions League squad, you expect Richarlison to play up top for Spurs.
Ben Davies is another player who has only a slim chance of playing against Bodo/Glimt. The long-serving defender is nursing a knee injury and will be assessed before the game.
Spurs predicted lineup vs Bodo/Glimt, (4-2-3-1)
Coach: Thomas Frank
