Bodo Glimt Aims to Extend UCL Run Against Sporting CP: Live Streaming and Match Details Bodo Glimt, the surprise package of the UEFA Champions League, is set to face Sporting CP in the Round of 16 as they seek to continue their historic campaign. The match, scheduled for 11 March 2026, will kick off at 16:00 EST (20:00 GMT) and promises to be a high-stakes encounter for both teams. The Norwegian side, known for their aggressive style and resilience, will be looking to build on their impressive run in the competition. After defeating last season’s runners-up Inter Milan 5-2 on aggregate in the playoffs, Bodo Glimt has now reached the last 16, becoming only the second Norwegian club to achieve this milestone. Their path to the knockout stage has been marked by five consecutive wins in 2026, including victories over Manchester City and Atletico Madrid during the group phase. Fans are optimistic about their chances, especially with their attacking prowess highlighted by striker Jens Petter Hauge, who has scored six goals in 10 Champions League matches. Sporting CP, the Portuguese giants, will be eager to maintain their momentum. Despite a 2-2 draw with Braga in their most recent league match, they remain second in the Primeira Liga, four points behind the leaders. Manager Rui Borges’ team has gone 12 games without a defeat across all competitions, showcasing their consistency. However, they face challenges with key absences, including Chelsea-bound winger Geovany Quenda, and potential suspensions for left-back Maximiliano Araujo and midfielder Pedro Goncalves. For fans unable to watch the match in their region, several streaming options are available. In the United States, Paramount+ will broadcast the game, while Stan Sport covers it in Australia and Fubo Canada in the U.S.#paramount_plus #bodo_glimt #jens_petter_hauge #sporting_cp #rui_borges

Sporting CP vs. Bodo/Glimt: Preview, Predictions and Lineups Bodo/Glimt are in a strong position to continue their remarkable Champions League campaign and advance to the quarterfinals on their debut in the competition. A decisive 3–0 victory over Sporting CP in the first leg of their round-of-16 tie has left the Portuguese side with a daunting task in the second leg. Despite their home dominance during the league phase, Sporting will need to overcome a significant deficit to progress. Bodo/Glimt, however, have shown they are more than capable of handling European challenges, having previously defeated top-tier teams like Manchester City, Atlético Madrid, and Inter Milan. Their recent performance against Sporting further solidified their reputation as a formidable force in European competition. The Norwegian side’s victory over Sporting was marked by clinical finishing, with goals from Sondre Fet, Ole Blomberg, and Kasper Høgh securing a comfortable win. This result highlights their ability to perform under pressure and adapt to high-stakes matches. Unlike some teams that rely heavily on their artificial pitch for success, Bodo/Glimt have demonstrated versatility and resilience throughout the tournament. Their ability to thrive in challenging circumstances has positioned them as serious contenders for deeper runs in the competition. For Sporting, the absence of key players due to injury or transfer-related issues complicates their preparations. The team remains without Ricardo Mangas, Giorgi Kochorashvili, Fotis Ioannidis, and Geovany Quenda, with the latter sidelined due to a broken foot. Manager Rui Borges has opted for tactical adjustments, utilizing Geny Catamo and Pedro Gonçalves on the flanks.#bodo_glimt #sporting_cp #rui_borges #kasper_hgh #ole_blomberg

Sporting CP e CD Tondela podem deferrar o jogo até maio devido à participação do Sporting na UEFA Champions League. A Liga Portuguesa não definiu data para o confronto, que está previsto para ocorrer após a fase de grupos da competição europeia. O encontro, que originalmente seria disputado no fim-de-semana de 14 e 15 de março, foi adiado, e o cenário de um desfecho em abril ou maio ganha relevância. O Sporting, que está na fase de oitavas de final da Champions, só terá data definida após a conclusão de sua participação na competição. A decisão da Liga foi confirmada em um comunicado que estabeleceu os horários das jornadas 26 e 27 da Liga Portuguesa. O Sporting, que enfrenta o Bodo/Glimt na próxima fase da Champions, só poderá garantir a data do jogo contra o Tondela se avançar na competição europeia. O desafio contra os noruegueses, que ocorre em 28 de fevereiro, é crucial para o calendário do clube. Se o Sporting passar aos quartos-de-final, o jogo contra o Tondela pode ser adiado para abril ou maio, dependendo do ritmo da fase europeia. O desfecho do duelo contra o Bodo/Glimt também influencia o planejamento do clube. O técnico Vítor Pereira terá que equilibrar a preparação para a Champions com a necessidade de manter o time competitivo na Liga. A possibilidade de um desfecho em maio, embora pareça distante, não é descartada, já que o Sporting pode enfrentar mais adversários na Champions. A data do jogo contra o Tondela será definida após a conclusão da fase europeia, o que pode levar a um adiamento significativo. Além disso, o Sporting enfrenta desafios internos, como a recuperação de jogadores lesionados e a gestão da formação. Maxi Araújo e Pote, que retornaram ao elenco, estão sendo integrados à equipe, mas o clube também precisa lidar com a ausência de jogadores por motivos disciplinares.#bodo_glimt #sporting_cp #uefa_champions_league #cd_tondela #vitor_pereira

Viktor Gyokeres replacement scores 31 Sporting CP has seemingly found a replacement for Viktor Gyokeres, with their new striker Luis Suarez delivering an impressive scoring return in his debut campaign. The 28-year-old Colombian, who joined the Portuguese club from Almeria last summer, has netted 31 goals and added six assists in 40 games, marking a strong start to his career at the club. His performance has come at a fraction of the cost of Gyokeres’ transfer to Arsenal, which saw Sporting receive €22.95m for the forward. Suarez’s success has been attributed to his ability to integrate quickly with his teammates, as he emphasized in an interview with Sporting TV. “The quick adaptation to the team and the teammates, the harmony with them I think was one of the key pieces,” he said. “But at the end of the day this is my job, they trusted me and I think I am giving back in the form of goals and a lot of work every game.” The striker is now focusing on helping Sporting mount a remarkable comeback in the Champions League, where they trail Bodo/Glimt 3-0 from the first leg of their round of 16 tie. Suarez acknowledged the challenge but expressed confidence in the team’s ability to turn the match around. “Yes, the game will be very complicated but we believe, it will be 90 minutes at our home, where we have become very strong and we will succeed,” he said. “We have this faith that we are going to achieve a positive result and that we are going to move on to the next round.” Suarez also highlighted the club’s history as motivation for the task ahead. “Yes, of course, everything this club has done in the past is an inspiration,” he noted. “In Norway, they made themselves strong with their fans, now we will have ours in favour, in our stadium, which we know perfectly.#arsenal #bodo_glimt #sporting_cp #luis_suarez #almeria
