Midtjylland and Nottingham Forest lock horn in the Europa League round of 16 second leg, with the Danish side holding a narrow 1-0 advantage from the first leg. As Forest struggled offensively in the first leg, we predict a 1-0 home win. Mike Tullberg's men have been solid at home this season, winning 40% of their matches there and averaging 1.6 goals per game, while keeping clean sheets in 40% of home fixtures. Midtjylland will be without Djabi, Franculino, Gogorza, and Mbabu, though they weren’t missed in the opening leg.
Forest have been struggling on the road of late, scoring only 1.75 goals per match on the road and losing 75% of their last away fixtures in Europe. BTTS has been a 50-50 outcome in the past encounters, reflecting tight but competitive matches. Nottingham Forest’s defender Cunha remains sidelined after a knock, leaving their already shaky backline vulnerable. Therefore, we do not believe that the Premier League side capable of keeping a clean sheet in Thursday's clash.
As home advantage and first-leg lead give Midtjylland the edge, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win. Additionally, Under 2.5 goals and Midtjylland to Score First bets should be considered.
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday 19 March 2026 at 17:45.
