Unlike the hosting side, Brondby started their season in the beginning of July in first round of qualification to the group stage. Danish side eliminated one by one Valur, 4-1, 6-0, Hibernian, 1-0,1-1, and Hertha Berlin, 0-1, 3-1. On top of that, the team is currently second in the league with 11 points after five matches. The visiting side played 11 matches this season, recording seven wins, two defeats and two draws.
Panathinaikos and Brondby haven’t met before. Greece side is strong at own turf and they have bigger chances for success in front of home fans. On top of that, they appear to be more skilled side and Brondby have small chances for points in this away clash.
Prediction for the match: Panathinaikos to win.
