Online bookmaker 18Bet has Brondby IF at -1111 to win on the Money Line.
Later today, Brondby IF and Roma battle it out in the Quarter-Finals. Brondby IF is controlled by Jesper Lindstrom, while Roma is being controlled by Justin Kluivert.
Lindstrom has conceded just two goals throughout the tournament. In the round-of-32, he had no trouble finding the back of the net. In a defeat of 8-2, Lindstrom scored the most goals in the first round of the tournament.
His success carried over to the round-of-16. In a sweaty game against Chelsea F.C, Lindstrom was able to complete the clean sheet winning 2-0.
Kluivert also had no trouble defeating his opponent in the round-of-16, winning 2-0 as well. With that being said, many believe that Lindstrom has played better football on the sticks and is undoubtedly the favorite entering today’s contest.
Possession will be key for Kluivert if he wants to make it out of the QF’s and book a ticket to the Semis. We have already seen the offensive prowess displayed by Lindstrom in previous games, so keeping the ball away from him will be a key to victory.
Can Kluivert change the landscape of the tournament or will Lindstrom continue to showcase his skills?
