Progres entertain Midtjylland at the Stade Municipal in the second leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League second qualifying round on Thursday (August 3).
The first leg in Denmark last week ended in a comfortable 2-0 win for Midtjylland, thanks to goals from Henrik Dalsgaard and Sory Kaba. The Danish side entered directly in the second qualifying round, while Progres beat Gjilani 4-2 on aggregate in the first qualifying round.
Progres have never qualified for the group stage of a UEFA competition, while Midtjylland have played in the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League. They made the knockout round playoffs of the Europa League last season, suffering a 5-1 aggregate defeat to Sporting.
Midtjylland continued their winning run in the Danish Superliga with a 2-0 home win over Silkeborg on Sunday, while Progres head into the second leg with a week's rest.
Progres have an impressive home record, where they're unbeaten this year. They had just one attempt on target in the first leg but are expected to fare better at home.
Midtjylland, meanwhile, have suffered just one defeat in 12 away games across competitions but are are winless in eight away games in Europe. Nonetheless, considering the current form of both teams, expect the Danish side to eke out a narrow win.
