When Lazio travelled to Bodo/Glimt for their Europa League quarter-final first leg last month they were greeted by a blizzard and a stadium covered in a blanket of snow.
Tractors with ploughs cleared the pitch so the game could be played, but the Italians still found the freezing conditions and artificial surface difficult as they were beaten by their Norwegian hosts 2-0.
They are not the first side to have struggled in Bodo - which is located 200km north of the Arctic Circle - and both Jose Mourinho and current Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou will no doubt still have nightmares about the defeats they had there, while in charge of Roma and Celtic respectively.
