Albert Gronbaek

Bodo/Glimt came so close to beating Ajax in their own backyard in the first leg but had to settle for a 2-2 draw, in the end, thanks to substitute Odin Bjørtuft getting sent off and a couple of stoppage-time goals for the hosts.

Pre-game odds and win probability: The odds favour a home win

  • HOME: 29/20 (2.45) – 40.8%
  • DRAW: 16/5 (4.20) – 23.8%
  • AWAY: 9/5 (2.80) – 35.7%

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Bodo/Glimt's domestic season is yet to begin so a 2-2 draw at the Johan Cruijff Arena in their first competitive game of the campaign looks like a good result but the Norwegians will be disappointed not to have taken a lead into the second leg after Albert Gronbaek had scored twice to put the visitors 2-0 up only for Ajax to score twice in stoppage time.

Player to watch – Albert Gronbaek

Gronbaek looked like he had done enough to win the game for Bodo/Glimt in Amsterdam, scoring a goal in each half to put the visitors 2-0 up, only for Ajax to score two stoppage-time goals and the scoreline end all square.

A goal threat and creative spark

Gronbaek is Bodo/Glimt's main goal threat now that Amahl Pellegrino has left the club for MLS side SJ Earthquakes and the Dane has chipped in with six goals and two assists from midfield making him their main playmaker as well as the chief goalscorer.
