Danish champions Copenhagen play host to Kosovar club Drita in the first leg of the Champions League second qualifying on Tuesday in Parken. Can the Lions boost their chances of qualifying for the next phase with a first-leg victory over the Intellectuals? Let's take you through our prediction.
Copenhagen remains Denmark's most frequent representative in the UEFA Champions League. The Danish champions have racked up six appearances in the main phase of the competition. They are also loving for their third appearance in four years, having featured in the 2022-23 and 2023-24 editions.
Drita's Champions League history is far from modest. The intellectuals became the first Kosovar club to play in the Champions League preliminaries in the 2018-19 season, winning the mini-tournament. However, their journey ended in the first qualifying round following defeat to Swedish side Malmo.
They featured again in the 2020-21 edition, but were knocked out in the preliminaries following defeat to Linfield in the final. Breaking away from the deadlock of previous campaigns, Zekirija Ramadani's side have improved immensely in this edition. Can they pull an upset against Copenhagen in Parken on Tuesday? Let's dive into detailed stats and analyzes below.

FC Copenhagen - KF Drita: Form Analysis
Copenhagen won their record 16th Danish Superliga title last season to seal their spot in the Champions League second qualifying round. This was followed by a record 10th Danish Cup win, thanks to a 3-0 victory over Solkeborg.

FC Copenhagen & KF Drita Squad Analysis
Denmark international Magnus Mattsson put up a showstopping performance in Copenhagen's Superliga opening win over Viborg. The attacking midfielder is a priority midfield option for Jacob Neestrup to lead the midfield battle for the team on Tuesday.
The Lions' last season's top scorer with 8 league goals Mohamed Elyounoussi also started with a bang against Viborg. The Norway international scored the second goal and is expected to return in the team's attack. Drita will also have to keep an eye on terrific forward Jordan Larsson who has 11 goals in European fixtures heading into this tie.
Drita head coach Zekirija Ramadani will line up his winning squad against Differdange on Tuesday. Center forward Arb Manaj, led the team's charge for the Kosovan league title, scoring 10 goals. The Kosovan forward, who scored three goals against Differdange, including a first-half brace in the second leg, will lead the team's attack.
Kosovan winger Veton Tusha produced instant impact, coming off the bench to score the late winner against Differdange and is expected to jostle for a starting role against competitor Liridon Balaj. Centre-backs Egzon Bejtullai and Juan Mesa are expected back at the defence while Faton Maloku returns in goal.
