Here’s our FC Copenhagen Vs Hearts preview, prediction, team news and predicted lineups ahead of Thursday’s Conference League fixture.<\/strong><\/p>\n

FC Copenhagen Vs Hearts Preview<\/h2>\n

Copenhagen missed out on last year’s Danish title by four points, but have made a strong start to the campaign this time around.<\/p>\n

Currently top of the table on goal difference, they have lost only two of their 17 league fixtures.<\/p>\n

Things haven’t gone so well in Europe, though. An opening-round loss to Jagiellonia Bialystok was followed by draws against both Real Betis (1-1) and Istanbul Basaksehir (2-2).<\/p>\n

They beat Dinamo Minsk 2-1 last time out to climb into the playoff places, but need another win to move further up the table.<\/p>\n

Unbeaten in their last 12 in all competitions, Jacob Neestrup’s side will hope home advantage benefits them against Hearts<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thursday’s visitors have also struggled at times this season. Having returned to the Scottish Premiership in 2021, the Edinburgh outfit have often been best-of-the-rest outside of Old Firm rivals Celtic<\/a> and Rangers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But an awful run that saw them win none of their first ten games in all competitions has left them playing catchup.<\/p>\n

In Europe, they started well to beat Omonia Nicosia and Dinamo Minsk, but lost to Cercle Brugge and FC Heidenheim.<\/p>\n

A 1-1 draw with Aberdeen was followed by beating Dundee 2-0 in recent fixtures, suggesting Neil Critchley’s side are beginning to regain their form.<\/p>\n

But with Hearts 17th in the Conference League<\/a> and just a point above Copenhagen, they too need a result in midweek to boost their knockout credentials.<\/p>\n
