This will be their first head-to-head meeting
In the Champions League round of 16 on February 18, 2026, Bodø/Glimt will face Inter. The visitors are clearly determined to settle everything already in the away leg.
The Norwegians, having become a dominant force at home, later began to achieve international success as well. But they paid the price for this—by autumn in the Eliteserien, they dropped to second place overall.
In Milan, under Simone Inzaghi, they missed out on four trophies in the final moments of 2025, including a heavy 0-5 defeat to PSG in last season’s Champions League final. Now, they seem to be leading confidently in Serie A. Still, Kivu and his squad were eliminated from both the Club World Cup and the Italian Super Cup.
The Scandinavians reached the Europa League semifinals in the spring. During the summer, they confidently overcame Sturm in the Champions League qualifiers. It seemed they would be content just with their debut in the main round: in 2025, they earned three draws and suffered three defeats. Yet in January, despite lacking match practice, they beat Manchester City at home and Atletico away!
The Italians started the tournament brilliantly, winning four matches—helped by opponents such as Ajax, Slavia, Union, and Kairat. But then they lost to the giants: Atletico, Liverpool, and Arsenal. However, when it mattered most, they rallied to defeat Borussia 2-0 in Dortmund!
