FC Nordsjælland-FC Midtjylland

Sunday 21/9 19.00

In our opinion these are the two strongest teams in the Danish league currently. FC Nordsjælland (4th) are benefitting from the offensive qualities of wingers Joshua John and Uffe Bech. They are a tough task for every team in the league. Defensively there is still a lot to ask for, and FC Nordsjællands backline are not totally convincing (led in three Brøndby goals in a match where they were very dominant). FC Nordsjælland are for once in a very positive situation with respect to injuries (all key players are fit). FC Midtjylland (1st) look incredibly strong at the moment. This is all the more impressive since FC Midtjylland are without several experienced players: striker Duncan, midfielder Andersson and defender Bak (captain). But in their absence others have filled the gap. Winger Sylvester Igboun was outstanding in the last round, netting a hattrick. The new-signed midfielder Kristoffer Olsson was also a positive experience and we expect to see much more from him in the future. For this match, the tall striker Paul Onuachu returns from suspension and he gives FC Midtjylland something extra offensively.

It is a match between two teams with the forces offensively. It is difficult to see how the defences will be able to shut down all these strong offensive players. For us this is an over match, and if we were to pick a winner we would go with FC Midtjylland. They look a bit more dangerous than FC Nordsjælland.
