The UEFA Champions League qualifier match between Copenhagen and Breidablik will take place at Parken on Wednesday at 11:30 pm IST.
Having secured a comfortable two-goal advantage in the previous week’s initial encounter, Copenhagen will strive to solidify their spot in the third round of Champions League qualifying this Wednesday. Their home ground, Parken Stadium, will witness the showdown against Breidablik. Having made it to the group stage of Europe’s premier club competition last season, the Danish champions are eager to finish the task against their Nordic opponents and move a step closer to another successful campaign.
Copenhagen’s ultimate goal is to replicate their successful performance in the 2022-23 season, where they achieved a domestic double. In UCL, their home form was impressive, remaining undefeated against Sevilla, Borussia Dortmund, and eventual winners Manchester City, they struggled away from home, losing all three matches without scoring and finishing at the bottom of the group. Starting their Danish Superliga title defense with a 2-1 victory against Lyngby and following it up with a 3-2 win at Vejle, Jacob Neestrup’s squad appears to be in excellent shape for this encounter.
Breidablik find themselves well into their domestic season, currently holding the third position in Iceland’s domestic league standings. Under the leadership of Oskar Thorvaldsson, Breidablik secured the league title with an impressive 10-point lead last year, earning them the opportunity to participate in UEFA’s premier club competition this summer. A loss would mean a shift to the Europa League qualifiers, offering some consolation and potentially a more feasible route to reach the group stage of a European competition for the first time in their history.
Copenhagen probable starting lineup: Grabara, Jelert, Vavro, Lund, Diks, Lerager, Clem, Falk; Bardghji, Larsson, Goncalves
Breidablik probable starting lineup: Einarsson, Gunnlaugsson, Margeirsson, Muminovic, Ingvarsson, Sigurjonsson, Einarsson, Svanthorsson, Steindorsson, Yeoman, Olsen
