Mansion Sports – The 2025/2026 UEFA Champions League presents another compelling matchup on matchday five as Bodo/Glimt prepare to host Juventus.

The fixture will be held at Aspmyra Stadion and is scheduled to kick off on Tuesday, 25 November 2025 at 21:00 local time.

Both sides are still searching for their first victory of the group stage. Bodo/Glimt and Juventus currently sit near the bottom of the standings, separated by just one point, with Juventus holding a slightly better position.

Before the match begins, here is Mansion Sports’ prediction for the lineups of Bodo/Glimt vs Juventus in November 2025.

Team Conditions Ahead of the Match

Bodo/Glimt

Although this is their first appearance in the main phase of the Champions League, Bodo/Glimt have already drawn attention thanks to their strong performances last season in the Europa League.

The clash against Juventus will mark their 14th meeting with a Serie A club. Their current situation, however, is far from ideal. A 1–0 defeat to Monaco on matchday four means the Norwegian side have collected only two points from draws against Slavia Prague and Tottenham Hotspur.

They have also failed to win any of their last seven European fixtures outside of the qualification rounds.

Should they fail to secure victory at Aspmyra Stadion—an iconic venue near the Arctic Circle—their winless run in European competitions will match the longest drought in the club’s history.

Despite their European struggles, Bodo/Glimt remain competitive domestically. A 2–1 win over KFUM Oslo at the weekend kept them firmly in the Eliteserien title race.

Juventus

Juventus arrive in a similarly challenging position. A series of underwhelming results—including dramatic draws against Borussia Dortmund and Villarreal, followed by a narrow loss to Real Madrid—has left them with limited room for error.

On matchday four, they were held to a 1–1 draw by Sporting Lisbon despite controlling much of the contest.

Their defensive record is also concerning, as Juventus have conceded in each of their last seven Champions League matches.

The club’s European form has noticeably declined, winning only two of their last 12 UEFA fixtures.

Their away record in the Champions League offers little optimism as well, with just one win from their previous 12 away outings.

Domestic form has not provided much relief either. A draw against Fiorentina last weekend further underlined the challenges Luciano Spalletti continues to face.

Predicted Lineups for Bodo/Glimt vs Juventus November 2025

Bodo/Glimt (4-3-3)

Bodo/Glimt will be without Jostein Gundersen, who is serving a suspension following his red card against Monaco.

Backup forward Ola Brynhildsen is also unavailable due to a knee injury. Aside from those absences, the squad is ready to compete.

Jens Petter Hauge is expected to return to the starting XI after being rested last weekend. The Norwegian winger has been in exceptional form, especially as the Champions League’s leader in successful dribbles this season (18).

Bodo/Glimt Lineup Table

Juventus (3-4-2-1)

Spalletti has hinted at squad rotation due to a congested schedule. Dusan Vlahovic is likely to be rested after dealing with adductor discomfort during the international break, with Lois Openda or Jonathan David expected to lead the attack.

In defence, both Juan Cabal and Lloyd Kelly have returned to fitness, but Bremer remains sidelined, and Daniele Rugani has joined the injury list due to a muscle issue.
