SønderjyskE-OB preview

Friday 25/9 18.00

SønderjyskE (4th) are performing way above expectations. They have a good mentality and adjust to the opponent, which has worked with great success. For this match, they will benefit from the return of strong central midfielder Adama Guira, while striker Tommy Bechmann could also return from injury. SønderjyskE are perhaps not the most convincing team when they have to dominate the match. They prefer relying on counter-attacks, why they often tend to struggle in home matches. OB (6th) are facing a quite poor period in terms of quality on the pitch. They won narrowly against Viborg last weekend and lost to 1st Division team FC Fredericia in midweek cup match, despite fielding a very strong team. Now they have another match so shortly after a tough defeat, and it will be interesting to see if they can rebound. They have a fairly strong attack, although creative force Rasmus Falk seems to have peaked a few weeks ago (still leads league with 5 assists). Defensively, they are fairly bad and their new-signed goalkeeper Ukrainian Koval does not seem all too safe.

It is a match between a team that tend to struggle when having to dominate and a team that struggles with current form and a poor defence. It is difficult to price. Early market had some value in SønderjyskE, but current odds seem fairly low to be attractive. Actually, I think a bet on OB is the most interesting given the current odds.

Idea: 2 (AH +0.25) – 1.975 at Bet365
