The Danish Superliga wraps up its weekend’s action with a clash between Odense and Midtjylland on Monday night as the betting tips continue at the Nature Energy Park.
Odense Prediction – Can Odense bounce back at home?
Odense were handed a 4-3 defeat away from home at Lyngby last time out in the Danish Superliga which has left the hosts on the edge of the Championship Round pack, sitting in the 6th place of the domestic top flight.
Odense had previously recorded back-to-back home wins against Nordsjaelland and Hobro in 3-1 and 2-1 victories, but they’ll have their work cut out against the Danish league leaders, Midtjylland, in this evening’s clash, despite Odense winning their last 3 home matches on the trot at their Nature Energy Park.
The hosts possess a reasonable looking home record of 5-1-2 16/8 which includes earlier wins against Lyngby and Randers but defeats to 2nd placed Copenhagen and 4th placed AGF could be an indication as to how Odense measure up against Midtjylland tonight.
That said, Odense have won the last 2 meetings against Midtjylland, 1-0 away from home and a 3-1 home win which will give them confidence in getting a result this evening.
Midtjylland Prediction – Can Midtjylland extend lead at top?
Monday night’s visitors, Midtjylland, sit top of the Danish Superliga holding a 4-point cushion ahead of 2nd placed Copenhagen prior to tonight’s clash at Odense, but this lead could be extended to 7 points if Midtjylland extend their winning streak here.
Midtjylland have won their last 5 matches on the trot in the Superliga with victories over Silkeborg, Randers, Esbjerg, Aalborg and Copenhagen – the latter being a 4-1 thrashing of their closest title rivals on home turf at their MCH Arena.
Results away from home have also been solid for Midtjylland as the visitors have yet to be beaten on their travels so far this season and hold a commanding away record of 7-1-0 13/2, which includes no fewer than 6 clean sheets on the road this term.
With just 3 defeats away from home out of their last 18 matches on the road, Midtjylland are a tough nut to crack either home or away, and with midfielders Evander (5 goals) and Anderson (4 goals) as well as forward Kaba (4 goals), they should get something from this encounter.
Key-Facts – Odense vs Midtjylland
- Odense’s two defeats at home have been against top four opposition
- Midtjylland have won their last 5 matches on the trot in the Superliga
