Viborg-FC Vestsjælland

Friday 27/9 18.30

Viborg (4th) saved two attempts on the goal line in order to keep rivals FC Midtjylland away from winning last weekend (0-0). Viborg played a decent match and they have actually done so the entire season with the loss against FC Copenhagen (1-4) as the only exception.  Since that match captain and defender Rask have returned which is an important addition. Viborg will be without two of their young regulars, defender Egeris and midfielder Lerager, but they should have fine alternatives in the squad. FC Vestsjælland (5th) missed out on the 2nd place with a disappointing loss to Esbjerg (1-3). This was the newcomer’s worst match of the season so far. Without this match in mind, they have left a good impression as a disciplined and physical team. In many ways the two clubs are quite similar: they have the same amount of points, both just promoted, focus on strong defence and set-pieces. The main difference is found in the routine where Vestsjælland can bolster a squad that has more Superliga experience and this could be crucial.

Two equal teams battle it out on Friday night. Both were deemed relegation favourites when the season started and even though both teams have impressed, the relegation line is not far away (4 points). We regard this match as a six-pointer, where we find that experience might be decisive. A draw could be satisfying for both, so we make this bet as a draw no bet (DNB).
