European play-offs

[edit]

The winning team from the 4-team knockout tournament advanced to a Europa League play-off match. In the final, the team with the most points from the relegation round group stage would host the second leg.

The match between Horsens and SønderjyskE was cancelled due to the latter's victory in the Danish Cup, which automatically qualified the team for Europa League and allowed Horsens to advance directly to the second round.
