FC Midtjylland return to MCH Arena on Wednesday to take on UE Santa Coloma with a place in the next round of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers up for grabs. 

Midtjylland vs UE Santa Coloma Betting Tips: Midtjylland / Over 3.5

After claiming a comfortable 3:0 win in last week´s first leg, FC Midtjylland should have little trouble in securing another easy victory when they host Andorran minnows UE Santa Coloma at MCH Arena. 

Another high-scoring win seems likely with FC Midtjylland seeing plenty of goals in previous home matches played towards the end of last season. Thomas Thomasberg´s men have seen at least four goals scored in five of their last six home matches.

Having eased to victory in Andorra, it's hard to see the Danes not adding another big win  against their Andorran opponents. Santa Coloma, competing in the UCL for the first time in their history, have lost 18 of 19 previous matches in European competition.

While they did claim a first-ever European win to see-off Ballkani in UCL qualifying round one, a repeat victory on Wednesday can be considered highly unlikely. 

On their travels, UE leaked 27 goals in losing eight of their last nine away matches in European competition, with exactly four conceded in three of their last four on the road in Europe.

With Midtjylland consistent in the goal markets at MCH Arena, I expect the hosts to score at least three, and likely four or more against their over-matched Andorran visitors.
