FC Copenhagen and Kairat Almaty will collide at Parken Stadium in a Champions League Matchday 5 clash that could redefine both clubs' European campaigns in midweek. Byens Hold and Halyq Komandasy are 33rd and 34th in the League Phase standings, respectively, after four games. Check out our match prediction below!
With just one point earned from their four UCL matches this season, Copenhagen's chances of qualifying for the knockout round aren’t looking too promising. With Villareal, Barcelona and Napoli to come, this is without doubt the Lions’ best chance of securing a victory in the League Phase of the competition.
Kairat have struggled to compete with Europe’s elite in their debut season in the UCL, and it isn’t going to get much easier with their ‘home’ games for the remainder of the League Phase now set to be played in Astana. The visitors have never won a match in a UEFA group-stage competition and are the biggest outsiders on Wednesday’s Champions League card. Let’s get into the key stats!

FC Copenhagen - Kairat Almaty: Form Analysis
Following back-to-back defeats ahead of the international break, Copenhagen ground out a much-needed 1-0 victory over Brondby at the weekend - cutting the gap to the top two in the Superliga to four points.
In this competition, the Team of the City’s only point came via a 2-2 draw against Bayer Leverkusen on MD 1. They have conceded two or more goals in each of their four UCL games this term.
However, the hosts are tough to beat at Parken Stadium, as they’ve suffered only one loss on home soil in their last 10 matches in all competitions, though half of those games ended in drawn results.
Copenhagen have scored in their last 18 home matches in European competition!
Meanwhile, after clinching their fifth league title on October 26, Kairat’s celebrations were quickly brought to a shuddering halt when they lost to Inter Milan 2-1 at the start of this month.
That result also ended the Almaty-based club’s five-match unbeaten run, a period during which they played to a goalless draw against Pafos to secure their only point in this competition to date.
While the visitors lost only two away league games all season, four of their six UCL matches on the road (including qualifiers) have ended in defeat, while the other two were stalemates.

FC Copenhagen & Kairat Almaty Squad Analysis
Jacob Neestrup opted to start Andres Cornelius in attack at the weekend against Brondby, but Youssoufa Moukoko is likely to return to lead the line here alongside Mohamed Elyounoussi.
A major part for the change at the weekend was due to the Lions’ injury list at present, with the likes of Thomas Delaney, Birger Meling, Rodrigo Huescas, Jonathan Moalem and Oliver Hojer all sidelined at present.
Jordan Larsson netted the winner over the weekend and also scored one of the hosts' three goals in the UCL this season. He is the team’s top scorer in the league this term and could be one to watch in this match.
Elyounoussi has 14 goal contributions in 25 games across all competitions this season!
Chelsea-bound Dastan Satpaev had a memorable international break, having scored for Kazakhstan to hold Belgium to a 1-1 draw. In doing so, the 17-year-old became the youngest player to score for the national team.
The visitors have two long-term absentees at present in Elder Santana and Joao Paulo, while Belarus international Aleksandr Martynovich is flagged as a major doubt.

Our FC Copenhagen vs Kairat Almaty Prediction
While Copenhagen have the firepower in attack to score in bulk on their day, they have found goals hard to come by lately, netting only once in their last three matches across all competitions.
That will give Kairat plenty of optimism here, as they were good defensively against Inter Milan and Pafos in their last two UCL games. We fancy the visitors to prioritise keeping a clean sheet in this one. Therefore, our FC Copenhagen vs Kairat Almaty prediction is less than 3.5 goals.
