Breidablik will face Egnatia at the Kópavogsvöllur on Tuesday in the second leg of their 2025-26 first-round UEFA Champions League qualifying clash. The home side have had their struggles in the Icelandic top division this season but will hope they can find better luck elsewhere this week.
They won their third Besta deild karla title last season, finishing three points above previous holders Vikingur in the table. Breidablik have now returned to the Champions League qualifiers but suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat in their first-leg clash last week and will be desperate to secure a comeback result in front of their home fans on Tuesday.
Egnatia, meanwhile, lifted the Albanian title for a second consecutive time last season, finishing atop the regular season standings with 59 points before seeing off Partizani and Vllaznia in the playoffs.
The visitors already have a foot in the second round of the Champions League qualifiers following their narrow win in the first leg, which saw Ildi Gruda come off the bench to score the game-winner in the 92nd minute.

Breidablik vs Egnatia Prediction

Egnatia have won their last four games on the bounce and will head into the midweek clash with confidence. However, they struggled for results on the road at the back end of last season and could see their fate decided in extra time or penalties.
