There's no exiting this stadium without a winner tonight as it's the second leg of the Champions League 2nd Qualifying Round meeting between AEK Larnaca and Midtjylland. Game on!
Midtjylland have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Midtjylland could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Superliga game only four sleeps ago.
