Sitting pretty at the top of the standings at home and in Europe, things could hardly be going better for Arsenal right now, but they can't afford to get complacent as they visit Bodo/Glimt in northern Norway today. Mikel Arteta's men won the reverse fixture 3-0 but the Yellow Horde gave them a couple of big scares. Read on to find out how to watch a Bodo/Glimt vs Arsenal live stream and catch the Europa League online, no matter where you are in the world.

Kjetil Knutsen has made two changes to last week's starting lineup, selecting Ola Solbakken up front in place of Joel Mvuka, and bringing Marius Høibråten into central defense at the expense of Brede Moe. Having grabbed a tidy brace at the weekend, Hugo Vetlesen will be a player to keep an eye on at right-midfield.

Arsenal skipper Martin Odegaard starts on his return to his homeland, but it's the inclusion of Reiss Nelson that really catches the eye. This is the mercurial midfielder's first start in more than 18 months, on the left side of a front three with Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah.

Last time out, Nketiah sent Arsenal on their way with a poacher's finish after Kieran Tierney had crashed a strike off the post. Rob Holding then met a beautiful cross from Fábio Vieira with an equally lovely glancing header to make it two before the break.

Vieira grabbed the third when Gabriel Jesus danced his way around yellow-shirted bodies along the byeline and laid it on a plate for the Portuguese midfielder, but it wasn't all plain-sailing for the Gunners.

Bodo/Glimt were lively after the break, and a goalline clearance was required to deny skipper Ulrik Saltnes late on, after Amahl Pellegrino had forced Matt Turner into a smart save. Knutsen's men romped to a 4-1 victory at the weekend, and Pellegrino, who's by far the top scorer in Eliteserien, will be desperate to get off the mark in the Europa League.

The wait will have been worth it if that elusive first goal comes tonight, against an opponent as storied as Arsenal. Follow our guide to get a Bodo/Glimt vs Arsenal live stream and watch the Europa League online from anywhere.
