FC Midtjylland welcome Slovan Bratislava to MCH Arena for the first leg of their Champions League playoff tie on Wednesday night.

FC Midtjylland: 

FC Midtjylland will host Slovan Bratislava at MCH Arena on Wednesday night, aiming to advance to the Champions League group stage for only the second time in their history. The Danish SuperLiga champions have shown strong form in recent months, extending their unbeaten run across all competitions to nine matches. Their impressive progress through the Champions League qualifiers included a commanding 4-0 aggregate win over UE Santa Coloma and a hard-fought 3-1 aggregate victory against Ferencvaros. Midtjylland's recent domestic success, including a 2-1 away win over Lyngby, has positioned them third in the Danish top flight, just one point behind the leaders. With a solid track record at home, they will be keen to leverage their advantage and take control of the tie against Slovan Bratislava.

Slovan Bratislava: 

Slovan Bratislava, the reigning Slovak First Football League champions, have made a strong start to the season with seven wins and two draws from their opening nine matches. Their Champions League journey this season has seen them overcome Struga, Celje, and APOEL, with notable performances including a 2-0 aggregate victory over APOEL in the third qualifying round. An own goal and a late strike from Robert Mak secured a 2-0 first-leg win over APOEL, while they held firm in the second leg to seal their place in the playoff round. Domestically, Slovan Bratislava maintained their perfect start with a 2-1 victory over FC Kosice, thanks to a last-minute goal from Tigran Barseghyan. Now, they are aiming to qualify for the Champions League group stage for the first time since the 1992-93 season, when the competition was rebranded from the European Cup.

Prediction:  2-2
