SønderjyskE-FC Midtjylland

Sunday 10/8 14.00

SønderjyskE (6th) have not lost a game yet. They have a strong defence with some physically strong and experienced players. They typically field a midfield with three out of four players having their forces defensively (Paulsen, Jonasson and Guira). Offensively they have suffered under the absence of key striker Tommy Bechmann. He is just returning from injury and should be able to take part in this match. SønderjyskE are bothered by the injury of strong winger Absalonsen. His absence will probably move the speedy Songani to the wing. Songani has been SønderjyskE’s main offensive weapon in the past matches, and his breakthrough could be just around the corner. FC Midtjylland (1st) played a good second half last weekend against Randers, which was enough to take a win (3-1). Especially, the winger Sisto was yet again a great offensive weapon, scoring twice in process. FC Midtjylland have a spectacular offence at the moment with players like Duncan, Sisto, Igboun, Andersson and Poulsen. Defensively they are not as impressive. Things might worsen with the possible absence of central defender Francis Dickoh. If he is not fit, right back Bak will be moved to the centre and the polyvalent André Rømer will cover the right back (possibly having a tough assignment against Songani). Winger Rilwan Hassan is out due to suspension, but he was probably starting on the bench anyway.

It is a battle between two clubs with their forces in each part of the pitch. There exist two possibilities: that FC Midtjylland’s offense is too strong for SønderjyskE (-> clear FCM win) or that SønderjyskE’s defence is strong enough to contain FC Midtjylland (-> tight game). The latter could very well be the case, and if so, we believe that a draw bet might not be a bad idea. It is a logical outcome of this match.
