Bodø/Glimt head coach Kjetil Knutsen said Bayern Munich are, in his view, the best team in the world ahead of tomorrow's game.

According to BuLi News, he told Wednesday's press conference that rewatching Bayern's semi-final meetings with PSG last season did not increase his confidence. The quality and work rate of their top-class players, he added, were inspiring.

Knutsen described the occasion as an ideal test and a chance to see exactly where Bodø/Glimt stand.

Jens Petter Hauge cautioned that it will be incredibly tough, noting many teams have had a very difficult time and that could be the case tomorrow.

Even so, he said there is always a chance in football and hoped they could keep the ball more than Bayern would prefer. The former Frankfurt winger added that Bodø/Glimt have shown for several years they are an incredibly good team and want to prove it tomorrow.
