They were already right up against it with Mikel Arteta’s side unbeaten at home so far this term.
However, the minnows’ task was made even more difficult after they were made to put in the hard yards before the game.
The amusing drama unfolded when FK Bodo/Glimt’s team bus got stuck on a narrow bend close to the ground.
With the prospect of potentially arriving even more later, the team and staff decided to walk the rest of the way to the stadium.
The K Bodo/Glimt players were recorded walking towards the Emirates as stunned onlookers watched on.
The club’s official Twitter account then hilariously posted a video of the players walking past Arsenal supporters on their way to the game.
It is the first European clash at the home of Arsenal since they suffered a heartbreaking defeat to Villarreal in the semi-final of the same competition back in 2020/21.
And Arteta is taking no chances in the group stages this time against the Norwegian champions.
