Maccabi Tel Aviv will face Midtjylland at the Partizan Stadium on Thursday in another round of the 2024-25 UEFA Europa League League Phase. The home side have enjoyed a strong start to their domestic campaign but will break from that this week as they turn their attention to continental football.
They locked horns with Portuguese outfit Sporting Braga in their group opener last week and had looked set to be headed toward a win on the road following Osher Davida's first-half penalty strike before their opponents netted twice in the final 10 minutes of the game to snatch all three points.
Midtjylland, meanwhile, traded tackles with Bundesliga side Hoffenheim in their tournament opener last week, heading into the break a goal up via a Dario Osorio strike from outside the area before their opponents levelled the scores late in the game.
The visitors now sit 21st in the League Phase with one point from an obtainable three and will be looking to pick up their first win of the tournament when they head to Serbia this week.
