FC Copenhagen vs Lincoln Red Imps prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Europa Conference League 2021-22

FC Copenhagen entertain Lincoln Red Imps at Parken Stadium on Thursday as UEFA Europa Conference League group stage action resumes this week.

The home side had a winning start to their campaign as they made quick work of Slovan Bratislava two weeks ago, beating them 3-1 with Jonas Wind bagging a brace. In their league fixture on Sunday, Copenhagen recorded a 5-1 win over Nordsjælland.

Lincoln Red Imps failed to open their account in the season opener and fell to a 2-0 loss at home to POAK. They suffered a 3-1 loss at home in the domestic cup final to rivals Europa.

FC Copenhagen vs Lincoln Red Imps Prediction

The home side have been in great form ahead of the fixture and should be able to make quick work of the visitors, who have played just two games this month. The visitors will be making a long trip to Copenhagen and that could play a role in the outcome of the game.

We predict a win for the home side, but the odds of a clean sheet for them look slim.

Prediction: FC Copenhagen 2-1 Lincoln Red Imps.
