Copenhagen preview: Can they keep the good form going?
With four wins in their last five matches, including pre-season friendlies, Copenhagen have started the new season well. They notched wins over Lyngby in the league and over Magpies in the Europa Conference League qualifiers. That being said, this was a pretty favourable schedule for them so far, but they still managed to be confident in those games.
Theo Sander, Roony Bardghji, Andreas Cornelius, and Nicolai Boilesen are all out with injuries for Copenhagen.
Predicted lineup: Trott (GK), Huecas, Diks, Garananga, Meling, Claesson, Falk, Goncalves, Larsson, Oskarsson & Elyounoussi

Aarhus preview: Hoping for another good performance at the start
While Aarhus have failed to win in their first-round duel with Midtjylland, holding the defending champions to a draw is not an easy feat and their fans can be pleased with that result. Aarhus now have another tough fixture as they travel to Copenhagen and if they can avoid a loss once again, this would be a very good start of the season for them.
Meanwhile, Tobias Molgaard and Kevin Yakob are currently on the team's injury list.
Predicted lineup: Hansen (GK), Dalsgaard, Jensen-Abbew, Tingager, Beijmo, Madsen, Anderson, Poulsen, Links, Bech & Mortensen

Player to watch: Mohamed Elyounoussi
The experienced Moroccan winger had a good last season in Copenhagen and he already hit the ground running this season with a goal in the first round of Superliga, as well as the Europa Conference League qualifiers.

Will Elyounoussi score in the first half?
Both goals that Elyounoussi has scored this season came in the first half. In fact, both were scored in the exact same minute (30th), so can Elyounoussi find the net in the first half of Copenhagen's duel with Aarhus?
