FC Copenhagen take on the visitors Midtjylland at “Telia Parken” in the matchday nine within the Championship Group of the Danish Superliga. The game will be played in Copenhagen on Friday, May 18th.
With only two encounters left till the end of the season FC Copenhagen are in the race for a pass to the UEFA Europa League for the next season. At this moment “Loverne” settle on the third position in the standings, being ahead Nordsjaelland only due to a better goal difference or better head-to-head results. In the latest tackles the upcoming hosts have lost to Aalborg 0:1 on the road and recorded 1:1 draw against Brondby at away field. Thus, in case FC Copenhagen fail to qualify to the Eurocups it will be a big shame.

In their turn, Midtjylland almost lost all the chances for winning the champion’s title in this season, nevertheless, an away triumph over Brondby in the previous gameweek brought them back to the race. However, I don’t believe in their success. The point is that Brondby will face two outsiders Aalborg and Horsens while “Ulvene” have to meet FC Copenhagen on the road. Thus, Midtjylland need a miracle to gain the gold medals of the Danish Superliga as they historically suffer against at the pitch of “Loverne”.
FC Copenhagen succeeded in last five head-to-heads against Midtjylland conducted at “Telia Parken”. “Ulvene” surprised everyone by having beaten Brondby in the previous round which, however, can be excused by the leaders’ three-point handicap over the closest chaser. The upcoming fight will differ as FC Copenhagen will be extremely motivated for not letting a pass to the UEFA Europa League to slip away as it would be a very serious damage to the club’s image as well as to its financial structure. Consequently, I believe Brondby will eventually get the champion’s title while Midtjylland will be satisfied with reaching the silver medals as “Loverne” are unlikely to let them earning at least a point as well as Brondby are unlikely to lose the points in the tackles against the outsiders.
Prediction for the match: FC Copenhagen to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
