Visitors FC Copenhagen arrive for their second leg match against Sparta Prag at the epet Arena this coming Tuesday. Following a tense first leg encounter in the Champions League, the match finished 0-0.

All they need to do is keep Sparta Prag from scoring at the same time, which is easier said than done at this stage, though.
