The last tickets for the Champions League.
The last tickets for the main stage of the Champions League await their holders on Wednesday night. The puzzle will be completed with the final four pieces of the puzzle, with eight teams having their chances. All matches will kick off at 22:00.
Bodo Glimt's narrow 2-1 win in Norway gives them a small lead, but the hot Serbian home ground balances things out somewhat and leaves qualification open.
Mimovic's goal on 75 minutes was very important for Red Star, as the Serbian champions don't need to cover two goals, which would put a very high hurdle in Milojevic's team's way. Of course, even a simple victory is not considered an easy task, as the Norwegian champions have the quality and experience now to meet the demands of such a match.
The hosts are the favourites to win, but the odds in the qualification case are on the opposite side.
QARABAG FK - GNK DINAMO ZAGREB
Dynamo Zagreb are the clear favourites to qualify for the main stage of the Champions League after their deafening 3-0 win over Karabakh.
The Croatian's five-minute outburst spearheaded by Sandro Kulenovic, who scored on 75 minutes and 80 minutes, turned Dynamo into huge favourites for qualification.
The Azeris are the favourites to win at home, but they know that to turn the tables on them they will need to play their perfect game and the Croatians their worst.
Another team that will be called upon to defend their home win. Lille beat Slavia Prague 2-0 in France and went to the Czech Republic to do the bare minimum and return home with a coveted ticket.
The French scored the two goals in the second half, through David and Zegrova, to tip the balance in Lille's favour. All Slavia have to do is attack and seek to win at home. Of course, this pressure is likely to have the opposite of the desired results, as Lille have too many quality and fast players to do the damage on the counter attack.
It is for this reason that Slavia have a very small margin of victory and Lille are the big favourites to qualify.
SK SLOVAN BRATISLAVA- FC MIDTJYLLAND
The only pair that did not produce a winner in the first game is Slovan Bratislava-Midland. Although the Slovaks took the lead through Blackman, the Danish champions tied the game through Čiluffia and the 1-1 draw leaves the qualification for tonight's rematch wide open.
If the first game is the criterion, Midland looked the better team, but in these games the home ground plays a big role. The balance can be upset when the dynamics of the teams are at roughly the same level. Slovan, which has a very good home court and a fanatic crowd, will try to take advantage of this.
However, Midland are not inexperienced in such atmospheres and are not expected to be affected to such an extent that they will shed the title of favourites that has accompanied them since the day the pair became known.
Besides, the odds give a slight edge to the Danish champions.
