Prediction: 2-2
PSV
Midtjylland and PSV go head to head at MCH Arena in what is expected to be an entertaining Champions League qualifier. As expected, Malen-less PSV won the first leg 3-0, and, as a result, they are with one eye in the playoffs for the elite competition. Considering that the Dutch outfit have been scoring goals for fun in the Champions League qualifiers, we are positive that they will find the net in Tuesday’s game.
Head coach Roger Schmidt is widely expected to stick to the 4-3-3 formation, with Zahavi up front as a lone forward. The Danes, on the other hand, have no other choice but to go all out-attack in the return leg. Given Midtjylland’s attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Midtjylland midfielder Mikael Anderson, who has been tested positive for coronavirus, is rated doubtful for the second leg.
Highlighted Player (Erik Sviatchenko):
Son to an Ukraininian-born artist Sergei Sviatchenko, the 24-year-old defender Erik joined Celtic in January 2016. His transition to the Scottish giants have been alleviated by Celtic’s signing of his girlfriend Rudmose, who signed for The Bhoys women’s team in February this year.

After seven years at the Danish side, Sviatchenko moved to Celtic on a four-year deal.
He has so far made 14 league appearances for Celtic, but still got the chance to wear the captain’s armband in May. Due to dual citizenship Erik Sviatchenko was eligible to play for Ukraine, but he agreed to a call-upfor the Danish national team in 2015. He has so far earned only five caps for his country.
