FC Copenhagen v Heidenheim Predictions

While short in competitive action, Copenhagen can take advantage of an out-of-form Heidenheim.

A home win is my only choice on Thursday.

Stats

FC Copenhagen won 4 of their last 6 home matches (Conference League)
Heidenheim lost 12 of their last 15 matches
Heidenheim lost 8 of their last 10 away matches

Head to Head

FC Copenhagen and Heidenheim will meet for the first time on Thursday.

FC Copenhagen Form

FC Copenhagen face their first competitive fixture of 2025 after a 4-3 friendly loss at AGF last weekend. The Danes have not played since mid-December.

The Byens secured their place in the Conference League Playoffs despite a 3-0 defeat at Rapid on matchday six in December. Jacob Neestrup's side had enjoyed a 14-game unbeaten run before their setback in Austria.

Strong at Parken, Copenhagen are unbeaten in 17 of their last 18 home fixtures, with victories picked up in each of their last four.

FC Copenhagen Team News

Head coach Neestrup has some selection issues to consider this week. Oscar Buur, Rasmus Falk Jensen and Elias Achouri are likely to miss out this week.

Roony Bardghji and Nicolai Boilesen face late fitness tests, while Kevin Diks is suspended.

Heidenheim Form

Heidenheim arrive in Denmark on the back of a fourth successive defeat suffered at Freiburg last weekend. Vincent Griffo's first-half goal secured a 1-0 victory for the hosts.

Frank Schmidt's out-of-form side have now lost 12 and won just one of their last 15 games played since the start of November.

The Germans have struggled on the road, losing eight of their last 10 away matches, including a 3-1 defeat at Istanbul Basaksehir in their most recent Conference League contest.

Heidenheim Team News

Heidenheim head coach Schmidt is unable to call on Niklas Dorsch, who is ruled out with a knee injury.

Paul Tschernuth, Frans Kratzig and Stefan Schimmer will not feature after they were left out of the visitor's European squad selection.

Verdict

FC Copenhagen v Heidenheim

Despite their inactivity, I expect Copenhagen to take a first-leg advantage on Thursday.

I'm putting my faith in the hosts to claim victory at Parken.
