Sparta Prag travel to Parken to face FC Copenhagen this coming Tuesday for the first of two meetings in round three of the Champions League qualifying.

FC Copenhagen arrive at this match following two wins and an 8-3 aggregate score against Breidablik in the second round of qualifying. Sparta Prag only enter the tournament at this stage.

FC Copenhagen scored 11 goals, conceded 16 and fought their way to a clean sheet four times in their previous ten matches in this tournament.

Sparta Prag scored 13 goals, conceded 19 and managed a clean sheet once in their previous ten matches in this tournament.

An intriguing encounter should be on the cards here as the two sides look fairly evenly matches. Sparta Prag are ambitious but don't have the experience of playing in the Champions League like FC Copenhagen do. This could go either way, but we favour the Danish champions to shine.
