Lazio Faces Bodo/Glimt in Europa League Quarter-Final Decider

Lazio faces a significant challenge in the Europa League quarter-final second leg against Bodo/Glimt at the Stadio Olimpico, needing to overturn a 2-0 deficit from the first leg played in Norway. The first match was marked by harsh weather, a synthetic pitch, and a disappointing Lazio performance, factors the Italian side hope to leave behind with the support of nearly 50,000 home fans. Bodo/Glimt, a club from north of the Arctic Circle known for their innovative tactics and high-intensity training, have risen from near-bankruptcy to domestic dominance and are now 90 minutes away from a historic semi-final. Lazio, meanwhile, have struggled with injuries and a demanding schedule but remain confident in their ability to mount a comeback. The match is crucial for Lazio’s European ambitions, especially as their domestic league position leaves their Champions League qualification hopes uncertain. The game will be broadcast live in the US on Paramount+.
