Esbjerg-Brøndby

Sunday 26/10 19.00

Esbjerg (9th) won 2-0 against OB last weekend and that should mean that they left the relegation line for good. In our opinion the team is simply too strong to go down. Esbjerg are still struggling a bit though. Truth is that Esbjerg only scored due to OB mistakes. Esbjerg have a hard time creating chances on their own. They play some power football, and they are always strong at home against the big clubs. Esbjerg will welcome back strong left back Jonas Knudsen who was suspended last weekend. Important winger Jakob Ankersen could be doubtful after being substituted early last weekend with back problems. If he is out Esbjerg look short of offensive creativity. Brøndby (5th) were impressive against FC Vestsjælland (5-0). They had loads of chances and finally got some players on the scoresheet that maybe lacked some confidence. The mood is high at the moment with the 2nd place just a win ahead. It appears that the Daniel Agger signing could have boosted the overall confidence of the players. It will be interesting to see if Brøndby can improve the 2-2 result from the last time they met in Esbjerg (barely a month ago). Back then it was a very even match.

Both clubs appear to be in the escalator going upward. Brøndby have left the best impression lately, while Esbjerg still have something to work with in under to reach the level from last season. Esbjerg are always strong at home and it will undoubtedly be a tough and tight match.
