Gofferstadion will be the centre of attention when NEC Nijmegen and Bodo Glimt lock horns in the Champions League playoffs, with both sides dreaming of reaching the league phase. Given the attacking potential of both sides, our prediction leans toward a 2-2 draw. NEC produced a major upset by eliminating Olympiacos in the previous round before making a flying start to their Eredivisie campaign with a 4-1 win over Willem II. The Dutch side have been involved in plenty of entertaining games lately, with BTTS landing in 90% of their last 10 matches. Summer signing Dusan Tadic will be the main man to watch, while Philippe Sandler and Sami Ouaissa remain sidelined.
Bodo Glimt, meanwhile, continued their excellent European campaign by overcoming St Gilloise after extra time in round three. The Norwegian side are in outstanding form, winning eight of their last 10 matches and scoring an impressive 2.6 goals per game. They have also failed to score in none of those 10 fixtures, highlighting their attacking consistency. Bodo are expected to stick to their offensive approach, although defender Jostein Maurstad Gundersen is doubtful after picking up a knock against St Gilloise.
Bodo average 3.5 total goals per game across their last 10 matches and given NEC's attacking firepower at home, Both Teams to Score seems like the safest betting option for this matchup. Additionally, Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals markets are worth considering.
This Champions League match will be played on Wednesday 19 August 2026 at 20:00.
