Midtjylland-Slovan Bratislava is a match valid for the first leg of the Champions League access playoffs and is played Wednesday at 9 p.m.: lineups, prediction, TV and streaming.
Midtjylland’s only participation in the Champions League group stage remains in the 2020-21 season. The goal of the reigning champions Denmark is to return four years later, aware of the fact that in the edition that opens in about a month’s time, two more matches will be played (8 instead of 6) and, above all, that the economic revenues will be greater thanks to the new format.
In spite of winning the Superligaen last year, Thomas Thomasberg’s men made their debut in the preliminaries at the end of July: everything was easy against the Andorran side Santa Coloma, while in the double-header against the Hungarians Ferencvaros the difference was made by the victory obtained in the first leg match, decided by the goals of strikers Djù and Buksa.
In the Magyar land, however, it ended 1-1, with Sorensen nullifying Cissé’s lead in the second half. Mitdjylland thus extended its unbeaten streak to nine games. In the league, the tally is three wins and two draws, which for the moment are worth second place behind Silkeborg. Thomasberg last Friday against Lyngby made a bit of a turnover, preserving a few starters ahead of the first leg match with Slovan Bratislava, another team that like the Danes is off to a strong start and is undefeated between cup and league. The Slovaks of preliminaries have played as many as three, eliminating the North-Macedonians Struga, the Slovenians Celje and finally the Cypriots APOEL Nicosia. In the league, on the other hand, Vladimir Weiss’ troop is on full points after the first three days (7 goals scored and 2 conceded). The Bratislava club is now chasing a historic qualification: the Champions League has been an obsession now since 1992.
