SønderjyskE-Randers

Friday 1/11 18.30

SønderjyskE (12th) are on the autobahn heading for a bottomless pit and the remaining junctions are sparse. Nordicbet offers 1.30 for SønderjyskE to relegate and this tells a scary story when having in mind that SønderjyskE are only four points from savour. The problem is that almost nobody believes that SønderjyskE have the strength to change this sequence of defeats and disappointments into survival. They have no offense. Their only decent striker, Tommy Bechmann, is long-term injured and their best winger, Johan Absalonsen, is suspended for this match. Their defence, which is thought to be their secure foundation, is rotten and without confidence (last weekend scored own goal and committed penalty). Only light in the darkness is their keeper, Martin Skender. The Croat has made several fantastic stops this autumn. Randers (9th) are one of the teams only four points ahead of SønderjyskE. They’ve only got themselves to blame: conceding two extra-time goals in the last three matches costing them four valuable points. The positive thing is that they are improving and are without defeat in these three (difficult) matches. Their strikers are finally finding the net again with Brock-Madsen scoring last round and Ronnie Schwartz in the previous. A few concerns: winger Jonas Kamper left last match with an injury and is very doubtful. Replacement alternatives: Lundberg and Svensson are not of the same quality. Defensively Randers have been missing strong left back Adama Tamboura, who are struggling with a foot injury, but should be close to returning.

SønderjyskE is a team without confidence, strikers and stable defenders. Randers is a team with renewed confidence and, quite frankly, a better team. We are surprised by the equal assessment by the bookies in spite of SønderjyskE’s poor form and the absence of Absalonsen. For us away win is the clear pick.
