Copenhagen take on the visitors Breidablik in the second leg of UEFA Champions League qualification quarterfinals. The first leg: 2-0. The match will be played on Wednesday, August 2nd at Parken Stadium (Copenhagen).
Absolutely nothing surprising happened; the Danish team was expected to be a serious favorite in the first match of this confrontation. However, bookmakers decided to add some intrigue, and the overwhelming advantage of the Lions in the odds for that meeting was not felt. But the Danish team showcased their class and left Iceland with a 2-0 victory. I expect a similar scenario in the upcoming match. After all, the Icelanders now have to play more openly to try and overcome the two-goal deficit, while the Danes can take advantage of playing on their home turf. So, I will try to bet on a confident victory for the hosts in this match.

The Icelandic team has done well so far. They went through a mini-qualifying tournament before the first main round of qualifications and then advanced through the first qualifying round as well. However, facing a formidable Danish opponent, it seems that Breidablik's journey through the Champions League qualifiers will come to an end. They suffered a 0-2 defeat at home, and now they need to win by at least two goals in the 90 minutes of this match. It's an incredibly challenging task, and it's likely unattainable for the Icelandic champions. There are limitations to this team's capabilities, and Copenhagen are clearly a higher-level opponent. So, I expect Breidablik to suffer a toothless defeat in this match.
The odds for a straight win by the hosts are modest, and we can consider betting on the hosts with a negative handicap. I believe that the Lions are capable of securing a victory with at least a two-goal difference. Therefore, I will settle on this betting option: Handicap (-1.5) on Copenhagen. The hosts can easily achieve a confident victory with several goals in this match.
Prediction for the match: Copenhagen to win with -1.5 handicap.
