There’s also action from the Danish top flight on Monday night when Odense take on Aalborg as the betting tips continue at the Nature Energy Park.
Odense Prediction – Can Odense climb into top six?
Despite losing their last 3 league matches on the trot in the Danish top flight, a win for Monday night’s hosts, Odense, would see them jump into 5th place at the expense of their visitors, Aalborg, so there’s plenty at stake in this upcoming clash at Nature Energy Park.
Recent losses to Lyngby, Midtjylland and Horsens have slowed down Odense’s progress up the Superliga table after having registered earlier back-to-back home wins against Nordsjaelland and Hobro, but this recent losing streak makes it hard to back them in this upcoming encounter against Aalborg.
Results at home have also been fairly inconsistent so far this season as Odense possess a home record which stands at 5-1-3 17/10 and includes an earlier victory over Horsens, but also defeats to AGF and Midtjylland.
The goals market therefore looks the best option as 6 of Odense’s 9 home matches to date have resulted with both teams scoring, with forwards Kadrii (10 goals) and Svendsen (8 goals) looking the most likely for Odense here.
Aalborg Prediction – Can Aalborg keep run going?
The visitors bring a 3-match unbeaten run into this Monday night clash against Odense which includes draws with Randers 3-3 and Hobro 1-1 along with a resounding 4-0 thumping of Horsens on home turf at their Aalborg Portland Park.
Overall, Aalborg have suffered just 1 defeat out of their last 7 matches in the Danish Superliga and this will give them confidence in getting a result away from home on Monday night as they look to further consolidate their top six position in the Danish top flight.
However, although they’ve suffered just 2 defeats at home throughout this season, Aalborg have found themselves on the end of 5 defeats on their travels so far this campaign amidst an overall away record of 3-1-5 15/14.
With mixed results on the road all season, it may be best to swerve the straight win market on Aalborg too, but as they’ve scored in 6 of their 9 away matches so far, the goals market appeals again for the visitors with the likes of midfielders Andersen (6 goals) and Olsen (5 goals) supporting forwards Kaufmann (7 goals) and van Weert (4 goals).
Key-Facts – Odense vs Aalborg
- 6 of Odense’s 9 home matches to date have resulted with both teams scoring
- Aalborg have scored in 6 of their 9 away matches to date in the Superliga
- A win for either side tonight would see them further their top six ambitions
Betting Tips Verdict
With Odense and Aalborg both chasing a top six finish, both could score here this evening.
