Heidenheim

Heidenheim made their debut in the elite German division only last season, but immediately produced a great result, finishing in seventh place, which allowed the Red-Blues to qualify for the UEFA Conference League. It seemed that they would only progress further, but in reality it turned out to be quite different. In the opening five rounds of the current Bundesliga campaign, they won three games, but they failed to keep the momentum going.

In the next 17 matches of the national championship Heidenheim won just one victory, being stronger than Union - 2:0. In two more battles were draws with Hoffenheim and Werder - 0:0 and 3:3, respectively, and in the remaining 14 matches the Red-Blue lost. Such poor results allow them to sit only on the 16th line in the standings, which threatens the transition games for the right to stay in the Bundesliga, and the gap from the saving 15th place is already seven points.

On the other hand, the Germans got off to a great start in the UEFA Conference League. They beat Olimpia 2:1, Paphos 1:0 and Hearts 2:0. Then the results worsened sharply, there were defeats from Chelsea and Başakşehir - 0:2 and 1:3, respectively, and in the final round they shared points with St. Gallen - 1:1, taking 16th place in the composite standings. But in the first match of the round of 32, Hoffenheim won a willful victory over Copenhagen - 2:1, and therefore has an excellent chance of final success.

Copenhagen

Copenhagen continues to dominate in the domestic arena. The Wolves have won the Danish championship 15 times in their history, including twice in the last three seasons. The only exception is the last edition of the tournament, when they finished only third. But now the Blues and Whites are serious about regaining the title, as they sit at the top of the standings after Week 18, ahead of Midtjylland.

The Danes started their journey in the UEFA Conference League with the second qualifying round, but successfully overcame all the stages on the way to the general stage of the tournament, where they performed quite well. In six rounds, the Wolves won two victories, being stronger than Minsk Dinamo and Hearts - 2:1 and 2:0, respectively. They drew with Betis - 1:1, as well as with Başakşehir - 2:2. At the same time they lost to Jagiellonia - 1:2, Rapid - 0:3. With eight points, they took 18th place in the standings.

Debut confrontation with Heidenham in the round of 32 of the UEFA Conference League was unsuccessful for Copenhagen. In the home match, the Danes opened the scoring, but could not keep the advantage, and in the end they conceded the second goal and suffered a defeat - 1:2.
