København and İstanbul Başakşehir should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

København form and stats

Last season their Europa League adventure ended in the group stage.

4W-4D-3L is the hard facts regardless of venue in the Europa League for København.

København's last game was hosting Nordsjælland and winning 2-1. Before that match, a Superliga win away at AaB.

Manager S. Solbakken felt very clever after Dame N'Doye scored the winning goal against Nordsjælland, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 60th minute.

This is expected to be a close game, with København perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with København as a small favourite), we find five games. København has won zero of these, drawn two and lost three.

The UEFA Europa League, abbreviated as UEL and commonly referred to as just the Europa League, is an annual football club competition organised by UEFA. It is the second-tier competition for football clubs in Europa, beneath the UEFA Champions League in value and importance. Teams qualify through their performance in their national leagues and cup competitions. Some teams qualify from the Champions League; more precisely the teams who are knocked out in the playoff qualifying round and the third-place finishers of the group stage. The winner of the Europa League qualifies for the Champions League in their next competitive season.
