FC Vestsjælland-Brøndby

Sunday 22/3 17.00

FC Vestsjælland (11th) are undoubtedly the worst performing team in the league currently. A SoTR of 27% in 2015 really paints a picture of a team that is a level under the opposition. Head coach Michael Hansen is frantically trying to find the right composition of players, but seems to be too patient with the new winter signings who have not contributed with anything else than disturbing the team spirit. The last match at FC Nordsjælland could have ended much worse, and it is difficult to see any other outcome than relegation. The local municipality considers offering free entrance as a desperate attempt to spark some hope. No reported injuries or suspensions though. Brøndby (5th) managed to win another home match last weekend (2-0 against OB). Had it not been for the impressive home statistic (8 wins in 11 matches), Brøndby could have been close to relegation. Brøndby have only managed to win one away match all season (a lucky win), and have lost the last four. However, there must be optimism in Brøndby who have played some fine matches in 2015 (just poor outcomes) and Brøndby are the team with most shots on target in 2015: 27. Brøndby is set to welcome back an important trio of Daniel Agger, Dario Dumic and Johan Elmander who all missed the last match, and Brøndby could, for once, field their preferred eleven.

Although the statistics are clearly not in favour of an away win here, the performances in 2015 certainly are. Brøndby should have more quality, morale and fan support here. Odds for away win are not spectacular but could be worth a try with small stakes.

Recommendation: 2 – 1.90 at Nordicbet

UPDATE: Agger still out due to sickness. Brøndby with and without Agger have been Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide, so far from optimal for our bet that he is out. Offensively, Brøndby should be able to give FC Vestsjælland problems.
