Inter Turku vs Copenhagen: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from Turku has recently been trying to challenge KuPS in the battle for the championship title. Last season, they failed to win it—finishing second. Even now, in the Veikkausliiga, the reigning champions are increasing their lead. The visitors from Copenhagen had a poor last season, not even making it into the top six. However, they became the best in the second group and, after winning a play-off match, managed to qualify for European competitions. In the new domestic season, they have started with three confident victories.
The Finns have already overcome three opponents in qualifying, all in similar fashion. They managed a draw in every away match and won each home game, scoring twice in each. This approach helped them defeat not only Sarajevo and Vaduz but, surprisingly, also Istanbul.
The Danes started their qualifying campaign with a draw in a technically away match—3-3 against Polesie. But after that, they only won. At home, they finished 2-1 against the Ukrainians despite being a man down, beat Debrecen 3-0 in Hungary, and 5-1 on their own ground.
