FC Copenhagen head to the iconic Camp Nou for a climactic Champions League clash with Catalan giants Barcelona on Wednesday night. Blaugrana are in ninth place in the League Phase standings heading into the final Matchday, while Loverne are in 26th place. Check out our match prediction below!
Barcelona secured their spot in the next round of the UCL last week with a commanding performance in Prague, but the job is far from complete for Hansi Flick’s side. Barca are one of eight teams locked level on 13 points apiece and are the first side below those coveted top-eight places, which allows them direct entry to the last 16.
Copenhagen showed tremendous fighting spirit to take a point off Napoli despite playing almost a full hour with 10 men on MD7. However, that result dropped them two places below the Knockout Playoff cutoff, meaning only a victory here will give them a chance of remaining in Europe this season. Let’s get into the key stats!

Barcelona - FC Copenhagen: Form Analysis
After a disappointing performance against Chelsea on MD5, Barcelona bounced back with consecutive wins in this competition, beating Frankfurt 2-1 before last week’s 4-2 victory over Slavia Prague.
Barca maintained their one-point lead at the top of La Liga over the weekend with a 3-0 victory against Real Oviedo and have now won 13 of their last 14 matches across all competitions (L1).
The hosts have also won their last 11 home games in all competitions and scored two or more goals in each of those victories since losing to PSG back on Matchday 1 of the Champions League.
Barcelona have conceded the most goals of the top 15 teams in the UCL standings (13)!
Meanwhile, FC Copenhagen showed incredible fighting spirit to hold Napoli to a draw last week, a result that kept them in the running to qualify for the knockouts. They are one of four teams on eight points heading into the final Matchday.
Byens Hold will be well-rested for this match, with the Danish Super Liga only set to resume next month. They are now unbeaten in their last three UCL games (W2 D1) and scored seven goals during this period.
While the visitors beat Villareal 3-2 in their last away game in this competition, that was one of only three wins in their last eight matches on the road (L5). They have also conceded two or more goals in each of their last five outings.

Barcelona & FC Copenhagen Squad Analysis
After bagging a first-half brace in Prague last week, Fermin Lopez has now scored five goals in six UCL matches this season, making him the highest-scoring Spanish player in the competition to date.
Frenkie de Jong was shown his third yellow card of the League Phase in the dying moments last week and will have to serve a one-match ban here. However, Lamine Yamal will be able to return, having served his suspension in the last match.
The hosts are expected to be missing at least four players through injury for this match, including Pedri, Ferran Torres, Andreas Christensen and Gavi.
Robert Lewandowski scored his first UCL goal of the season last week!
Jordan Larsson came off the bench to net the crucial equaliser against Napoli on MD7, which took his tally to three goals and made him the joint-highest goal scorer for Copenhagen in a single UCL season.
Thomas Delaney was the player sent off for the Lions in the last match, and he will likely be replaced by one of Pantelis Chatzidiakos or William Clem in midfield for this trip to Catalonia.
The visitors have two confirmed absentees this week in Rodrigo Huescas and Magnus Mattsson. Both players have serious knee injuries and are expected to miss the majority of the season.

Our Barcelona vs FC Copenhagen Prediction
Barcelona have been excellent in attack of late, scoring two or more goals in 13 of their last 14 matches, which sees them enter MD8 of the Champions League as the second shortest priced favourites.
However, Blaugrana’s attacking prowess has been necessary, as they have yet to keep a clean sheet in the UCL this season. Copenhagen will need to produce a massive performance to win this match, but they have scored in each of their last three in Europe, and we feel they will get on the scoresheet in this one. Our Barcelona vs FC Copenhagen prediction is BTTS.
