Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Sparkles will be flying when Ostrava and FC Copenhagen square off against each other at Mestsky stadion v Ostrave-Vitkovicich in the Conference League third qualifying round, return leg. Ostrava aim to make a comeback in the tie with Copenhagen and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field in Thursday’s encounter. David Lischka remains on the sidelines with injury, while fellow defender Patrick Kpozo is only one yellow card away from suspension.
Jacob Neestrup’s troops, on the other hand, were struggling to break the deadlock in the first leg, but teenage forward Victory Froholdt eventually scored a late winner in the Parken Stadium clash. Copenhagen aim to give fans yet another reason to celebrate, but seeing that Ostrava are tough to beat at home, the share of spoils is on the cards this time out. The likes of Boilesen, Cornelius, and Bardghji should miss out with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (FC Copenhagen):
The most successful club in the history of Danish football FC Kopenhagen was founded in 1992, through the merger of 15-time Danish champions Kjobenhavns Boldklub and seven-time champions of Denmark Boldklubben 1903. Football Club Copenhagen play their matches at the Telia Parken, a venue that can host 38,000 spectators.
The Team of the City as Copenhagen is called in Denmark has won the Danish football championship eleven times, while it has also won the Danish Cup on seven occasions. The club forms great rivalry with Copenhagen’s suburban club Brondby IF with games between the two club attracting some of the biggest crowds in Danish football history in this so called New Firm derby.
Through its history F.C. Copenhagen have participated in the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup, UEFA Europa League and UEFA Champions League, while their major European accomplishments have been achieved in the Royal League, with the Danish powerhouse winning two titles and coming as runners-up on one occasion.
