2019-20 Danish Superliga champions (and back-to-back runners-up) FC Midtjylland travel over to Lisbon on Tuesday to take on Portugal's most successful ever club in Benfica in what will be a huge European matchup between the two clubs.
Midtjylland kicked off their new 2022-23 Danish club season with one draw and one defeat, but abso lutely blitzed past Odense on the road in their last game with a comprehensive 5-1 victory.
Over in Portugal however, it’s now been back-to-back third-place finishes for Benfica in the league as they've slipped off the pace domestically, but this is a team who always show up in Europe, reaching the Champions League quarter-finals last season against Liverpool and drawing 3-3 against them in Anfield.
