Team News

Copenhagen will be without Elias Achouri (hamstring), Junnosuke Suzuki (unspecified), Jonathan Moalem (hip), and Oliver Højer (post-surgery). Goalkeeper Kotarski is set to start behind a back four of López, Hatzidiakos, Pereira, and Huescas, with Delaney and Lerager anchoring midfield. Elyounoussi and Larsson should operate out wide, while Cornelius leads the attack.

Malmö face absences of captain Anders Christiansen (groin) and Martin Olsson (hamstring), with striker Erik Botheim doubtful. Coach Henrik Rydström is likely to field Olsen in goal, with a back three of Rösler, Djuric, and Jansson, supported by wing-backs Stryger Larsen and Busanello. Haksabanović and Bolin are expected to support the central striker, likely Taha Ali or Gudjohnsen.

Match Outlook

With the tie finely balanced, Copenhagen’s home advantage and attacking depth make them slight favorites to progress. Malmö, however, have shown defensive resilience and will aim to frustrate the hosts while looking for counter-attacking opportunities. Analysts predict goals in this one, with Over 2.5 goals considered the strongest market and a narrow Copenhagen win tipped to seal qualification.
