Level after 90 minutes and Fipster expects extra time to settle nothing either — this one has penalty shootout written all over it, with Red Bull Salzburg tipped to hold their nerve from the spot. The graded markets reflect the score at the end of extra time, and any penalty-shootout call is a who-goes-through tip, not a scored prediction.

Expect Mjallby AIF to secure a narrow 2-1 victory, overturning their previous defeat and advancing in the play-offs. The match should be competitive, with moderate disciplinary events likely.

The verdict

While Red Bull Salzburg have the experience and a slight edge in past meetings, Mjallby AIF's resilience and tactical approach could see them sneak a win. Fans should brace for a tense encounter that might ultimately be decided by penalties.
