Bodo/Glimt play their home games not only on a plastic pitch, but in a 8,270-seater stadium.

To put that into context, here's a list of some English non-league clubs with a larger capacity...

• Halifax Town (The Shay) - 14,061
• Oldham Athletic (Boundary Park) - 13,513
• Southend United (Roots Hall) - 12,392
• Bury FC (Gigg Lane, most recently crowned champions in the North West Counties Premier Division) - 11,840
• Gateshead (The International Stadium) - 11,800
• Bath City (Twerton Park) - 8,840

Spurs fan Chris Cowlin, who is in Norway, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "It's very cold, but hopefully the trip will be worth it.

"Nothing is nailed on when it comes to Tottenham. The players have got to grab this opportunity, we have to be thinking we will lift the trophy.

"We've been riddled with injuries, our creative players are missing. This is not going to be an easy game.

"I spoke to a Bodo fan today, and they said they are feeling very confident and that they are in control of the tie. When I asked why, he said because of the plastic pitch."

You'll always get lucky with me at the helm, Chris. Man of the people.

They paint me as a villain and yet here I am.

The Tottenham squad were disturbed by Bodo/Glimt ultras letting off fireworks outside their hotel last night.

It is something the fans have done before to help their team ahead of big games.

"It's nothing new, we do it, we give the away side a little ‘awake night’. It's a little part of it. I wasn't behind it but I salute it!" said Bodo/Glimt Supporters' Club chairman Thomas Solberg.

Fellow fan Morten Moe, who has travelled home from Oslo for the game, also expects a big night this evening – if Bodo pull off a comeback.

"All the restaurants have gone to the papers and said if they win they will stay open until 3am. It will be total mayhem in the city," said Moe.

"There will be a lot of parties. I feel the buzz in the city, you can feel it anywhere.

“I live in Oslo and I've come back to my hometown and I'm staying with a friend eight kilometres outside the city, all the yellow flags were through the street. I have a feeling something special is going to happen.”

Bodo/Glimt Supporters' Club chairman Thomas Solberg has labelled their Europa League semi-final second leg showdown with Tottenham as the biggest day in the club's history.

The hosts are looking to recover from their 3-1 first leg defeat in London last week.

They have already beaten Braga, Porto, Twente and Lazio in this season's competition to reach their first ever European semi-final.

"It's the biggest day for Bodo/Glimt in its history. It should be a day for the history books," Solberg told BBC Sport in Norway.

"I hope they (Tottenham) think they are in the final, I don't think they know what they are facing. The artificial, surface, the weather - it's going to rain - I think they are going to experience something else.

"Everybody speaks about the surface, the weather, everything. That's all excuses. Bodo/Glimt have the ability to play Tottenham out of the tournament."

Guglielmo Vicario is "not impressed" by the artificial pitch facing Tottenham at Bodo/Glimt on Thursday night but says it is "not an excuse".

"We knew about it before coming in," Vicario said. "Many teams have played here so nothing has worried us about the surface.

"You cannot change the condition of the pitch - it is just about how quickly you adapt. I don't have a lot of experience on [artificial surfaces] but it's fine. We will be ready."

The Tottenham goalkeeper emphasised Spurs will not be content to sit on their two-goal lead but will instead attempt to make sure of progress to the final by winning the game outright.

"We need to focus on our strengths and try to win the game," he said. "We cannot sit back and hope for mistakes. We have to attack and play our way.

"We are really committed to what we have to do and know our way of football. We have to play with a high tempo and high intensity like in the first leg.

"Then we will see."

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham Hotspur will be without James Maddison who will miss the rest of the season with a knee injury he picked up in the first leg against Bodo/Glimt.

Ange Postecoglou's side will also have to make do without captain Son Heung-min who has been ruled out through injury.

Better news for Spurs comes in the shape of forward Dominic Solanke, who Postecoglou confirmed is "ready to go" having been an injury doubt.

Joe brings the quizzes, I bring the aggro.

Right then, where's Ricky at?!

Congrats everyone. FC Porto is the right answer. Well that was fun, wasn't it?

Now, Ben's coming back on from the sidelines. He's still a bit nervy after all the Arsenal arguments earlier.

Be kind to him, OK?

Joe Rindl
BBC Sport

It's definitely not Benfica, for all those asking. Don't you know about their curse?!

Real answer coming in 3....2....1....

Nope, Conference League.

Sorry, PSV last won it in 1978. And CSKA were 2005, while Zenit were 2008.

You're right, Shakhtar Donetsk did win it in 2008-09, but there's a non-top five league team who has won the Europa League more recently than that.
