Astana take on the visitors Midtjylland at the Astana Arena in the second qualifying round of UEFA Champions League. The match will be played in the eponymous city Astana on Tuesday, July 24th.
The biggest clubs of Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan have been playing really well against big clubs from top tier leagues on the hosting side for the last several years. One of the reasons for that is that flying to those countries is quite exhausting which makes an impact on physical conditions of the players. Also the Blue and Yellows have a lot of experienced footballers in their squad so the team shows overall good performances. Astana are in their peak shape at the moment. One interesting thing about them is that they often show great games in front of their home crowd while on the away side they often don`t look that good.

The Danish Superliga has started recently and Midtjylland who is a reigning champion haven`t shown much in the starting tours. Last two matches for the Wolves ended with a 1-2 loss to Aalborg and a 0-0 draw against Aarhus. The team has not achieved the teamwork yet and their players have made a lot of faults in the matches recently. It`s obvious that the team is not in their peak shape.
It`s likely that Astana will once again show good performance in front of their home crowd but also could have a draw.
Prediction for the match: Astana to win with 0 handicap.
