SønderjyskE-Hobro preview

Monday 17/8 19.00

SønderjyskE (5th) have been playing really well so far. They are a typical counter-attacking team, so they have profited from meeting two of the big clubs at home and two of the weaker teams away. This is the kind of matches that really suits SønderjyskE. However, matches like this, against a defensive opponent on own soil is really difficult for SønderjyskE, who lack the players to dominate the match with a nice passing game. They are mostly a team of strong spoilers. Striker Thomas Dalgaard and defender Marc Pedersen are both doubtful with minor injuries. Hobro (9th) look somewhat weaker than last season and without the injured striker Quincy Antipas they really lack some offensive firepower. They are in severe danger of being relegated this season, but they have great team spirit and a good defensive base, which will give them points throughout the season. Hobro will arrive to this match with the aim of just obtaining one point and they will try to defend their way to it.

SønderjyskE are really poor in taking charge of matches, which might explain why they only won 2 matches at home last season. This is one of the really difficult matches for SønderjyskE, and you can wonder who they will breakdown this Hobro defence if Hobro just play conservative. SønderjyskE are in our opinion too big favourites here.
