Ferencvaros will be up against the odds even with a home crowd behind them when they face Midtjylland, especially after a disappointing first leg. The Hungarian side shipped two goals and only registered two shots on target, so this week will need to be a much-improved display.

Ferencvaros vs Midtjylland prediction: Danish giants expected to qualify
Key stats
- Midtjylland's have scored in every game this campaign
- Ferencvaros have only lost to Midtjylland across all competitions this term
- Ulvene have won their last three matches by the exact scoreline of 2-0
Correct score prediction: Ferencvaros 1-2 Midtjylland
Midtjylland will be confident of advancing in the Champions League qualifying rounds following their dominant 2-0 home victory last week. However, after seeing Ferencvaros dominate possession last time out, they could still pose a threat.
Pre-match odds and win probability: Hosts tipped to give themselves a lifeline
- Home: 11/10 (2.1) – 47.6%
- Draw: 5/2 (3.5) – 28.6%
- Away: 13/5 (3.6) – 27.8%
While the bookmakers are backing the hosts to take the win this midweek, that does not mean they are the ones most likely to qualify. Ferencvaros know they must score three goals and keep a clean sheet to book their spot in the next round.
Despite the Danish side having kept four consecutive clean sheets Midtjylland may sit back and look to soak up the pressure from Fernecvaros. This is why we like the look of the BTTS market, but do also offer more free betting tips to give you further inspiration.
Most recent H2Hs: Midtjylland have the edge
Before last week, these two had not met in a competitive sense since 2017 in a European qualifier. Midtjylland have now made it three wins from three in European qualifiers against Ferencvaros, and the Hungarians will need to pick up their first win to have a chance of progressing.

Ferencvaros preview: It's all or nothing for the home side
Ferencvaros will be disappointed to have not scored away to Midtjylland, because just one strike would've made all the difference. The Hungarian outfit must find the back of the net twice without a reply to even force extra-time, something which seems very unlikely given Midtjylland are yet to not score in a match this term.
Predicted lineup: Dibusz (GK), Makreckis, Cisse, Gustavo, Ramirez, Maiga, Rommens, Traore, Zachariassen, Kwabena, Pesic

Midtjylland preview: Visitors are in total control

Player to watch: Adam Buksa
Despite just joining this summer, Adam Buksa is already a fan-favourite and looks to be the next top striker Midtjylland can rely on. The Poland international scored after just 17 minutes in the reverse picture to ensure he put his stamp on the game.
Buksa now has three goals in his five appearances for Midtjylland so he'll be a nailed-on starter for this big match and his threat on the counter-attack could prove crucial.
