Prediction: 1-2
Fenerbahce
MCH Arena will host Thursday’s football game between Midtjylland and Fenerbahce, the two mid-table sides. Both trams are with one foot in the knockout stages, but the round 8 clash will decide their destiny. Fenerbahce failed to impress in a goalless draw with Lyon, but Jose Mourinho’s troops should not be written off just yet. Former Newcastle winger Allan Saint-Maximin is pushing for a start as well as Bosnia striker Edin Dzeko, whereas both Sofyan Amrabat and Bright Osayi-Samuel miss out through suspension.
The hosts, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-0 win over Ludogorets. Midtjylland did well to put an end to their three-game losing run, but they have yet to secure their spot in top 24. Given the number of high-profile players in Jose Mourinho’s team, we are tempted to bet on the Turkish outfit. All Cho Gue-Sung, Franculino, and Olafsson miss out with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Cengiz Under):
Cengiz Under is a professional footballer who plays for both Roma and the Turkish national team. Born in Sindirigi, Turkey on July 14, 1997, Under is a pacey winger who began his youth career at Bucasport.

Highlighted Team (Midtjylland):
Despite being founded on February 2, 1999, FC Midtjylland is considered one of the best Danish clubs. The Wolves have quickly established themselves as one of the dominant forces in Superliga, with the team clinching their first league title in the 2014/15 season.
Three seasons later Midtjylland repeated the success, with the team finishing the process four points clear of second-place Brondby.
