Nordsjaelland will host Fenerbahce at Right to Dream Park on Thursday in another round of the 2023-24 UEFA Europa Conference League group stage campaign.
The hosts have struggled for results of late and will hope they can find better luck on the continental stage. They played out a 1-1 draw against Slovakian side Spartak Trnava in their last group game and would perhaps feel deserved more after a strong first-half performance. However, they were guilty of wasteful finishing and managed to get just a point.
Nordsjaelland sit second in Group H with seven points from four games. They are just two points behind their midweek opponents and will leapfrog them with a win on Thursday.
Fenerbahce have performed well in the Conference League this season and are closing in on a last-16 spot. However, they suffered their first defeat of the competition on matchday four, losing 2-0 to Ludogorets.

Nordsjaelland vs Fenerbahce Prediction
Nordsjaelland are on a three-game winless streak and have won just two of their last six games across all competitions. They have, however, performed well on home turf this season, losing just one of their last 12 games at the Right to Dream Park and will be hopeful of a positive result here.
Fenerbahce, meanwhile, saw their latest result end a three-game winless run and will hope to kick on from that. The sheer gulf in class and quality between the two teams should see the visitors come out on top here.
