The Hibees lost 1-0 to the Danes last night, with Alexander Zorniger’s men now heavy favourites to see out the tie when they host the Easter Road side in Copenhagen.

However, if Hibs can overturn the 1-0 deficit, they’ll be rewarded with a tie against German Bundesliga outfit.

Dates for the first and second leg are still to be confirmed, but Hibs are expected to be at home first as they would be unseeded if they can defeat Brondby.
