FC Midtjylland
- FC Midtjylland have won their last four matches in all competitions and are unbeaten at home in the Superliga (W7, D3).
- The Wolves’ last two Superliga matches were big wins on the road, a 4-1 success at OB Odense and a 4-0 triumph at Silkeborg IF.
- Midtjylland have averaged 3.40 goals per Superliga home match, conceding an average of 1.40.
Brondby I.F.
- Brondby I.F. are third in the table, 12 points behind Midtjylland after 21 Superliga matches.
- Brondby I.F. will be a tough nut to crack, however, as Steve Cooper’s team are a well-disciplined and tough to beat outfit.
- The visitors try to stretch the opposition wide and get forward quickly in the transition, but their attacking play remains a work in progress.
Head-to-Head
- Midtjylland won the most recent head-to-head 3-1 away in the Superliga.
- Brondby I.F. have won three of the last five head-to-head meetings while Midtjylland have claimed two wins and there have been no draws between the clubs.
- Midtjylland have failed to beat Brondby in their last two home games so it won’t be an easy task for the hosts this Sunday.
Key Players
- Junior Brumado is in great goalscoring form, having scored four in his last five appearances.
- Nicolai Vallys, with five goals in 19 Superliga appearances, is the main man up top for the Danes but he hasn’t got much support from his teammates.
Betting Insights
- FC Midtjylland are heavy favorites with the bookies at 1.53, with Brondby I.F. outsiders at 5.4 and the draw at 4.2.
- Brondby have a good away record with only five defeats from ten Superliga road games and have conceded an average of just 0.80 per game on their travels.
- The Wolves have averaged 3.40 per home match while conceding an average of 1.40.
Prediction
- This clash will be all about who can impose their style on the game best and it will be a chess match between two coaches looking to make their mark.
- There will be some transitions and set pieces and, given Midtjylland’s home form, the hosts look well placed to get another win here.
- Given Midtjylland’s current form and Brondby’s troubles on the road, the home side should have enough to claim a victory and the Over 2.5 goals market at 1.57 looks promising.
