AGF Aarhus

-
Their most recent 2 results read:
- a 0-2 defeat to Viborg FF in the Danish Superliga.
- a 3-1 defeat to Benfica in UEFA Europa League Qualification 2026, and it is the latter that makes this an interesting game on Thursday.
Benfica
- Since Marco Silva took charge of Benfica on 1 July 2026, he has had little time to shape As Águias into his own vision, but the signs suggest that he has stamped his authority on the side and they're playing in a controlled, high-pressing style.
- And, let's not forget that Benfica are scoring at will right now, banging 33 goals in their last 10 matches across all competitions at an average of 3.30 per game.
Betting Insights
- AGF are the clear underdogs at 7.4, whilst Benfica come into this as the clear favourites at 1.42.
- Whilst it's easy to see why the Portuguese side are the favorites, we're getting the draw at 4.7, which still leaves a sliver of upset potential in the matchup at Cepheus Park Randers.
- As you might expect, we're going for over 2.5 goals at 1.53 and both teams to score also looks good at 1.7.
Prediction
We're siding with Benfica though, as they have an extra bit of attacking depth and pressing edge that should be enough to see them through after their 3-1 win in the first meeting.
