Odense hosts Horsens in the first leg of the Europa League playoffs semifinals (Danish Superliga). The match will be played on Thursday, July 23rd at Nature Energy Park (Odense)
Odense is a club with a glorious history. The team has several sets of championship medals, and it won the national cup five times. Moreover, it regularly appeared in the international arena and even won the Intertoto Cup once. The battles for promotion to the Europa League are familiar to it. The strength of the team lies precisely in the game on its pitch. At home, Jacob Mikkelsen's men won in four of five matches after the season resumed.

Horsens gained bronze medals of the championship only once in its entire history, and this was back in 1967. The visitors have not participated in European Cups for 50 years, and given that their budget is very modest, the management is probably not too keen to go there now. In the mini-tournament for survival, Bo Henriksen's men played without a single defeat and got 15 days to prepare for this semi-final. However, such a pause can only harm because the opponent is in a better game tone.
Odense has won in four of the last five head-to-head meetings. Moreover, the last three visits of Horsens ended with dry defeats with a total score of 8:0. In addition to the tone and the fans, the motivation of a particular player also speaks in favor of the home team. Max Fenger shows a very good game. The 18-year-old player from the reserve got his chance due to injuries of the attacking leaders and single-handedly scored all three goals against Randers in the quarterfinals. Fenger will continue to move mountains in order to gain a foothold in the squad or even to get into European cups and sell himself at a higher price to some club from the top championships. I think the hosts will gain victory.
Prediction for the match: Odense to win
