Prediction: 2-2
Midtjylland
All eyes will be on Fredrikstad Stadion when Fredrikstad and Midtjylland face each other in an all-Scandinavian clash in the Europa League third qualifying round. The Norwegians are eager to impress in their Europa League opener, but they face a difficult task in Thursday’s clash. Talented forward Benjamin Faraas remains in the recovery room, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Danes, on the other hand, failed to impress in the Champions League double-header with Hibernian. Midtjylland are likely to stick to their attacking style of play and given Fredrikstad’s attacking potential at home, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Defender Mads Bech Sorensen is only one yellow card away from suspension, while both Cho Gue-Sung and Ousmane Diao are out of contention through injuries for the visiting team.
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. In the 2019/20 season the Wolves won their third domestic trophy, leaving Danish giants Copenhagen in the second place. Midtjylland welcome their rivals at MCH Arena, the venue which can hold up to 11,432 people.
In the 2020/21 season the Wolves did well to book their place in the Champions League group stages, with the team being grouped with the likes of Liverpool, Ajax, and Atalanta. Midtjylland are well known for their excellent scouting system, with a number of young and talented players from Africa joining the club year by year.
