Brondby will host Red Bull Salzburg in the second leg of the Champions League playoff round on Wednesday. The kick-off is at 21:00 CEST.

Preview

Brondby came extremely close to claiming a 1-1 draw against Salzburg in the first leg last week but Brenden Aaronson's late strike instead put the Red Bulls in the driving seat ahead of the return fixture in Denmark.

While Niels Frederiksen's men shared points with Odense (2-2) in the Danish top flight over the weekend since then, Matthias Jaissle's side went on to destroy Austria Klagenfurt 3-1 in the Austrian Bundesliga on Saturday.

Team news

Christian Cappis, Mathias Greve, Tobias Borkeeiet and Thomas Mikkelsen will not feature for the hosts on Wednesday after contracting Covid-19 lately, while Zlatko Junuzovic is the only confirmed injury absentee in the visitors' set-up.

Prediction

It was quite surprising to see Brondby almost scooping a draw in Salzburg as the Danish champions started off their title defence with four draws and two defeats in the domestic league. The Red Bulls, on the contrary, are coming into this encounter on the back of nine consecutive victories across all competitions, including five wins in the Austrian top flight. Therefore, let's stick with in-form Salzburg to extend their incredible streak to 10 matches at Brondby Stadium and thus book their place in the Champions League group stage for a third season on the bounce.
