Analysis of the match between Basel and København
Basel enjoyed a perfect warm-up ahead of their clash with Copenhagen, cruising to a dominant 6-1 win over Biel-Bienne. The result has boosted confidence for Shaqiri and his teammates. On the other hand, Copenhagen also showed solid form by defeating Nordsjaelland to further cement their position at the top of the Danish Superliga.
Both teams appear well-prepared going into this crucial tie, as they battle for a spot in the 2025/26 Champions League play-off round. In terms of recent form, there's little to separate them: Basel have won 3 of their last 6 matches, while Copenhagen have claimed 4 victories over the same span.
Basel’s biggest advantage lies at home, where they are unbeaten in their last 12 matches at St. Jakob-Park. That said, Copenhagen have also been impressive on the road, avoiding defeat in each of their last 10 away games. Still, Basel may hold a slight edge thanks to their strong squad and wealth of experience in European competitions.
It’s expected to be a closely contested encounter, as Copenhagen won’t be easily overpowered. However, with the home advantage, Basel are slightly favored to come out on top—though likely by a narrow margin.
