- FC Copenhagen to win & under 3.5 goals - 6/5 with Paddy Power
- Mohamed Elyounoussi to score the first goal - 5/1 with Paddy Power
Kilmarnock kept their European hopes alive with a stunning 1-0 win over Tromso in the Arctic Circle last week, but now face an even tougher challenge against FC Copenhagen in the UEFA Conference League play-offs.
Derek McInnes’ side are underdogs against a Danish team that reached the Champions League last 16 last year, eventually being beaten 6-2 by Manchester City on aggregate, highlighting the gulf in class between these two outfits.
However, the Lions needed a mammoth penalty shootout to beat Czech side Banik Ostrava in the last round of qualifying, which will offer Killie some hope.

FC Copenhagen vs Kilmarnock Match Preview
Despite the apparent gulf in class between the sides, the stats suggest this clash could be a low-scoring encounter.
Copenhagen’s last five games have all been under 2.5 goals, and Kilmarnock are set to line up to frustrate the hosts - Killie’s two away games in Europe this term, against Cercle Brugge and Tromso, produced just one goal in each match.
Derek McInnes will have his side well-drilled, and they could keep themselves in the tie for the return leg at Rugby Park by ensuring this game goes under 3.5 goals.
A home win coupled with under 3.5 goals is available at odds-against, and that looks like an excellent bet.
Familiar name to haunt Killie?
Former Celtic winger Mohamed Elyounoussi is a player Kilmarnock fans will recognise, and he’s expected to be a major threat on Thursday evening.
The Norwegian international has been in fine form, scoring four goals in nine appearances this season, and he looks overpriced to grab the opening goal in the Parken Stadium
