Copenhagen take on the visitors Aarhus in the round 2 match of Danish Superliga. The match will be played on Sunday, July 28th at Parken Stadium (Copenhagen).
Copenhagen matched their best-ever performance in the Champions League last season, making it out of the group stage. Notably, the Danish side secured second place in their group, edging out both Galatasaray and, crucially, Manchester United—the English giants finished fourth and failed to progress further. In the Round of 16, Neestrup's team faced Manchester City and, as expected, were eliminated without much resistance. Domestically, the team faced early challenges and ultimately finished third in the league. As a result, they played against the "Magpies" at home in the UEFA Europa Conference League qualifiers last Thursday, comfortably winning 3-0 and securing their place in the next round. They will now travel to Gibraltar next week. Meanwhile, the league campaign kicked off on Monday with a comfortable 2-0 win against Lyngby.

Aarhus proves to be a tough competitor. The "Whites" came close to securing a European spot last season, ultimately finishing in fifth place, just shy of the necessary positions in the league table. Additionally, they had a strong cup run, reaching the final but falling short in the decisive match. Uwe Rösler's team started the new season at home against the defending champions, Midtjylland. Bæh opened the scoring in the eighth minute, and Mortensen had a chance to deliver a knockout blow but missed a penalty. However, the "Wolves" quickly equalized after the break, resulting in a 1-1 draw—a respectable outcome, though they had hoped for more.
Surprisingly, the "Lions" have won only one of their last four official encounters against Aarhus, suffering two losses in the process. This includes a 3-2 defeat at Aarhus' home in May when Copenhagen were still the reigning champions. The capital club looks very solid and is expected to secure another confident victory. We recommend betting on them with a handicap of "-1 goal."
Prediction for the match: Copenhagen to win with -1.0 scored goals.
