It's game one of two in the Europa Conference League as PSV host København. This is a 8th Finals fixture played over two legs and nothing will be decided tonight.
These teams have little in common geographically as København have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
PSV have less rest than København in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Eredivisie game only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Heracles, was also a home game here at Philips Stadion. The away team is better rested.
