Europa Conference League
Last week, FC Copenhagen won 3-0 against Debrecen and are very close to securing another qualification round. The Danish team finished with an xG of 1.69, while the hosts had only 0.36, so it is no wonder the visitors recorded an easy victory that places them in an excellent position ahead of the rematch.
FC Copenhagen team overview
Last season was terrible for FC Copenhagen. They finished seventh in the Superliga, but secured Conference League qualification through the playoffs. This summer, the team from Parken Stadium is much better, with four victories and one draw across all competitions. In the most recent outing, FC Copenhagen won 3-0 on the road against Debrecen. Bo Svensson's team is especially strong in attack this season, with 14 goals in five matches.
After a big victory in Hungary, FC Copenhagen's head coach Bo Svensson was very satisfied. He said, "Apart from the first 15 minutes and maybe also the first 20 minutes of the second half, I think we were in full control, even though we didn't always have the ball that much. But they didn't come to anything, and we scored three good goals ourselves and had a few more chances, so I think it looked pretty stable."
FC Copenhagen have problems with injuries. They will be without Jordan Larsson, Rodrigo Huescas, Magnus Mattsson, Dominik Sarapata, Hunor Nemeth, and Viktor Dadason for the upcoming tie.

Debrecen team overview
Last year was one of the best for Debrecen in the Hungarian league, as they finished fourth in the standings. Debrecen had some optimism heading into the 2026/27 season, but the first few weeks of the campaign were far beyond expectations. So far, they have won only two of six matches in all competitions. After a defeat to FC Copenhagen in the Conference League qualification, Debrecen returned to winning with a 1-0 home triumph in the domestic league against Nyiregyhaza.
Debrecen's head coach, Gert Remmel, is hoping that a victory in the previous Hungarian league round will help the team going forward. He said, "Everyone knew how important the match against Nyíregyháza was, and not only because we had no points before, but because it was a real derby. The players performed almost perfectly today, which gives them new energy for the next matches."
Debrecen's Gergo Tercza and Dominik Kocsis are injured, but they could recover in time to play on Wednesday night in Parken Stadium.
