2026-2027 Champions League: Bodo/Glimt vs. Borussia Dortmund—Probable Lineups

On Wednesday evening, Bodo/Glimt will host Borussia Dortmund at Aspmyra Stadion. Kickoff is set for 9 p.m., with the match counting toward the second matchday of the Champions League group stage.

Bodo/Glimt and Borussia Dortmund face off with the goal of earning crucial points in their European campaign.

Bodo/Glimt is expected to rely on an attacking trio of Ole Blomberg, Andreas Helmersen, and Jens Petter Hauge, with Patrick Berg anchoring the midfield alongside Sondre Auklend and Sondre Fet. Fredrik Sjøvold and Fredrik Bjørkan are expected to start on the defensive flanks, while Nikita Haikin should be in goal.

Niko Kovac’s Borussia Dortmund is expected to rely on Serhou Guirassy as the main striker, supported by Jobe Bellingham and Marcel Sabitzer in the attacking midfield. Felix Nmecha and Joey Veerman are expected in midfield, with Maximilian Beier and Daniel Svensson on the wings. Gregor Kobel is expected to start in goal.
