Strange derby.
This Tuesday evening marks the first leg matches of the third qualifying round of the 2025-26 Champions League.Â
Before the clash between Nice and Benfica on Wednesday, this Tuesday you can especially enjoy a mouthwatering Malmö vs. Copenhagen!
This fixture sees a Swedish team face a Danish side, and yet... it's a real derby!Â
Indeed, Malmö is located in the far southwest of Sweden, while Copenhagen is in the east of Denmark. The result? The two cities are separated by only... 28 kilometers!
And get this: it's the shortest distance in Champions League history for a match between two teams from different countries!
Crazy, right?
