FC Midtjylland on a roll
FCM have won 7 of their last 10 matches in all competitions and come into this game following a two-match winning streak after beating AC Horsens 2-0 and Bohemian FC 2-0 in the away leg of this tie last week.
Midtjylland's favouritism is well earned at 27/100, especially considering they have a home record of 4 wins and 1 defeat in their last five home matches, scoring 11 goals along the way (2.20 per game). Mike Tullberg's side are a fast, data-driven team who can really turn on the heat in transition.
This will be a big test for Bohemian FC, who come into the game unbeaten in their last four away from home in all competitions (W2, D2) and with 12 goals scored on the road across that run. Alan Reynolds' side have gone 5W, 3D and 2L across their last 10, so they come into this clash with some momentum, even if it isn't a hot streak.
High-low clash can go just one way
This is very much a game of high against low, with FCM's dynamic energy and ability to press from the front and create overloads on the wings going against Bohemian's more cautious, compact shape.
It's a clash that favours the hosts, who are capable of turning games on their head and punishing their opponents with their set-piece threat and counter-pressing style.
Hosts can hold the edge
This is going to be tough for Bohemian FC, with the draw price of 121/25 suggesting an uphill battle unless they can keep this one tight and nick a goal on the break. But Reynolds' side are a pragmatic side, so it's hard to see them running riot or even getting too many touches in the opposition box on the night.
A home win with a low scoring line looks the likeliest outcome and with the hosts clearly the favourites and the BTTS-No option coming in at 39/50, we're going to steer towards a more controlled display than a chaotic affair.
