After both sides swept through to the third qualifying round with big aggregate wins, Bodo/Glimt and FK Zalgiris continue their pursuit of a place in the Champions League group stage on Wednesday.
The teams play out the first leg of their tie in the Norwegian champions' Arctic Circle home, with the winners after next week's return in Vilnius advancing to the playoff round - the losers will slip into the Europa League.
We say: Bodo/Glimt 2-0 FK Zalgiris
Though they have suffered setbacks on the road to the group stage so far, Bodo/Glimt have performed with a swagger in recent matches and should prove particularly tough to beat in front of their own supporters.
While Zalgiris are currently more consistent in terms of results, the hosts' greater European experience should steer them to a useful first-leg lead.

We say: Maccabi Haifa 3-1 Apollon Limassol
Benefiting from the momentum gained by three competitive outings, compared with their relatively undercooked opponents, Maccabi Haifa are set to take a lead into next week's second leg. As a result, Apollon will have a mountain to climb upon their return to Cyprus.

The Stadion Miejski im. Wladyslawa Krola in Poland plays host to a Champions League qualifying third-round first-leg tie on Tuesday, as Dynamo Kiev take on Sturm Graz.
The Ukrainian powerhouses made it past Fenerbahce in the second round of qualifying, while their Austrian counterparts are entering at this stage of the tournament.
We say: Dynamo Kiev 1-1 Sturm Graz
Sturm Graz have started the new season as they mean to go on and should play without fear after getting the better of Salzburg, but Dynamo Kiev will prove a stern test as ever.
Lucescu's tight-knit squad needed extra time and an extra man to eventually get the better of Fenerbahce, but we just cannot separate the two squads here and expect the tie to be settled in the second leg.
