FC Midtjylland 1/7 to win against Derry City in tonight’s Europa League qualifier

Competition: Europa League qualifier
Market: FC Midtjylland to win against Derry City
Odds: 1/7 @ Bet 365

FC Midtjylland welcome Derry City to the MCH Arena in the first leg of the first round of the Europa League qualifiers this evening, and are big favourites to see past their Irish opposition given the gulf in class between the two sides. FC Midtjylland were in the Europa League two seasons ago while Derry are 247 places lower in the UEFA club coefficient rankings.

As for the hosts, Jess Thorup’s FC Midtjylland side are coming off the back off four wins from their last five games in their domestic league, keeping clean sheets in their previous two. The Danish Superligaen side famously beat Manchester United in the first leg of their last-32 clash in 2015/16 and made the playoffs of the competition a season later.

There’s European pedigree with FC Midtjylland, something Kenny Shiels’s Derry City are lacking ahead of a difficult clash in Denmark. City aren’t in the best form ahead of tonight’s meeting, having lost their last two games, while picking up just one win in five. As a result, Bet 365 are giving odds of 1/7 for Midtjylland to win against Derry.
