Rapid Vienna vs Copenhagen Prediction

These are two of the stronger sides that will hope to push for the quarter-finals of this season’s UEFA Europa Conference League but both have work to do to make the top eight of the league phase.

Rapid Vienna come into this one on the back of collecting ten points from five UECL games, sitting below the top eight on goal difference. The Austrians were beaten 3-1 by Omonia Nicosia in Cyprus last week in what was their most recent outing. They are winless since the November internationals.

Copenhagen have eight points from their five games with two victories, two draws and a defeat. They sit two points off the top eight but comfortably three clear of 25th. They defeated Hearts by two goals to nil last week before completing a Danish Cup quarter-final win against Kolding.

Rapid Vienna and Copenhagen have both averaged 1.6 goals scored per game in this competition and could both do with a win, albeit with the pressure off, so it could be a fun encounter in Vienna.

Rapid Vienna vs Copenhagen Tip: Over 2.5 goals
