Copenhagen vs Breidablik Prediction and Betting Tips | August 2nd 2023
Copenhagen will welcome Breidablik to the Parken Stadium in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round on Wednesday.

The hosts made it to the group stage of the competition last season and will look to repeat the feat this time around as well.

The hosts continued their winning ways in the Superliga on Saturday as they recorded a 3-2 win over Vejle. The visitors, meanwhile, failed to bounce back from the defeat in the first leg and played a 1-1 draw against Starjnan in the Besta delid.

Copenhagen vs Breidablik Prediction
Byens Hold are on a five-game winning run (including friendlies) and look to be in good touch at the moment. They have conceded just one goal against Icelandic opponents and are expected to have the upper hand against the visitors in this home leg.
The visitors kick-started their qualification campaign with four consecutive wins but failed to score in the first leg at home. They recorded three shots on target in the first leg and, considering their goalscoring form, should be able to find the back of the net in this match.
Nonetheless, considering the hosts' current form and superior record in the qualifiers, we back them to eke out a narrow win.
