FC Midtjylland are preparing to face Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Europa League on neutral ground in Serbia. The Danish club goes into its third game with maximum points from the first two matches and sits second in the league phase ahead of Thursday’s fixture.
Midtjylland’s Strong Form Ahead of Key Match
Head coach Mike Tullberg played down the impact of the neutral venue, describing it as another opportunity to collect three points. He noted the strong start to the campaign and said the team is now chasing a third straight win.
Midtjylland arrive in strong form, with seven victories in their last eight outings. The only result that broke that streak was a draw away to FC Copenhagen at Parken. The team has lost just once in a competitive match since late April and is coming off a 5-1 home win over Vejle.
Tullberg wants his side to carry recent performances into this match, pointing to several weeks of solid play both in and out of possession. He believes the group is in a good place and ready for the task.
Reflecting on the first two Europa League games, he highlighted wins over Austrian champions Sturm Graz and Premier League club Nottingham Forest. He said success came from taking chances at key moments and defending collectively when needed, and that the same level of professionalism will be required in Serbia.
Kickoff is Thursday at 21:00 at TSC Arena in Bačka Topola, Serbia. With the team’s momentum and Tullberg’s strategic insights, fans can expect an exciting match as Midtjylland aims to extend their lead in the Europa League standings.
