Silkeborg (12th) are undoubtedly heading
for relegation. The team lacks quality and currently also confidence. The
performance in last round, 2-0 loss against a B-team from AaB, was just
terrible. Silkeborg are doing okay until they reach the opponents box, from
then on they only have one solution: hopeless long-range attempts. The front
man Nikolaj Agger lacks the skills to cut through the opponents defence, and
with alternatives Morten Beck injured and Jeppe Illum playing poorly, Silkeborg
have over the past matches used unproven 18-year-old Robert Skov as second
striker. Skov has actually done okay (scoring one of Silkeborg’s only seven
goals for the season), but this illustrates the sort of problems Silkeborg have
upfront. In the rest of the pitch, Silkeborg are a solid team with many
experienced players, but nothing spectacular. One of their best players,
central midfielder Daniel A. Pedersen is suspended for this match. FC
Midtjylland (1st) are doing a great job with a strong squad. They have a range
of quality players that can make the difference. Last weekend it was winger
Pione Sisto who scored two goals in the 2-0 win against FC Nordsjælland. FC
Midtjylland have done outstanding in this season, especially when having the
number of injured players in mind. The injury situation has not exactly
improved for this match. Central midfielder Jakob Poulsen (the league’s top
assist player (5)) is injured and the ever-dangerous winger Sylvester Igboun is
suspended. FC Midtjylland have decent alternatives in the squad, but they are
more defensive minded. Not an optimal situation when facing a Silkeborg team
that will be looking to take points by defending and countering.
Each end of the table is meeting here. Both
teams have absences for key players, and for FC Midtjylland it could dampen
their offensive performance. Silkeborg are traditionally a difficult opponent
for FC Midtjylland, but in the current state we doubt they will be able to even
grasp a point (also consider that FC Midtjylland will have great support due to
the proximity of the clubs). The most interesting bet here is probably under
2.5 goals. Silkeborg have played more matches without scoring than matches
scoring, and FC Midtjylland are without a player with 6 goals and a player with
5 assists. Alternatively, Silkeborg not to score at around 2.55 is decent.
