FC Copenhagen vs Polessya
📖 The Preview
After a wild 3-3 first leg, this one is effectively a coin flip on aggregate, but Copenhagen's home advantage should tip things their way. Their recent form is solid — winning more often than not across their last ten — and playing in front of their own crowd in a knockout tie matters. Polessya have shown they can score, hence the 2-1 rather than a clean sheet, but Copenhagen doing just enough to edge through on the night feels like the most likely outcome here.
