Kilmarnock v FC Copenhagen: How to watch, TV channel, kick-off time, head-to-head stats and team news

Kilmarnock have it all to do if they are to qualify for the main draw of the UEFA Conference League as they must avenge a 2-0 first-leg deficit against Danish outfit FC Copenhagen.

Killie will be buoyed by having knocked Norwegian outfit Tromso out in the last round, but this is a very different test against Copenhagen, a side blessed with recent UEFA Champions League experience.

They were in the UEFA Champions League group stages only last season and they mixed it with Bayern Munich and Manchester United on that occasion, winning at home to the Red Devils.

The Danish side needed a 76th-minute penalty from Kevin Diks to break the deadlock at home last week, before Rasmus Falk gave them some breathing space in the tie as he scored with the final kick of the game deep into stoppage time.
