Midtjylland vs Sturm Graz prediction

In the second qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League, Midtjylland were unconvincing in a dramatic win over Hibernian. They then had fortunate draws against fairly weak fellow Scandinavian opposition in Norwegian outfit Fredrikstad and then Finnish champions Kuopion Palloseura.

Sturm Graz were in the league phase of the UEFA Champions League last season but the Austrian champions were knocked out in the playoff round this time around as a result of a 6-2 aggregate defeat of Norwegian champions Bodo/Glimt, albeit they did win the second-leg by two goals to one in Austria.

Sturm Graz represent a step up in quality for Midtjylland from their previous outings, and it should be quite a good game for the neutral in which both sides sense an opportunity.
