Hillerød
- Hillerød are unbeaten in four of their last five 1st Division matches, winning two and drawing two
- Hillerod have won the battle at the top of the Betinia Liga promotion group for most of the season and have a seven-point lead over second-placed AC Horsens after 22 games.
- The hosts are a compact unit, who like to play a controlled style of soccer with the ball in possession and a flexible press.
- Their coach Martin Vingaard has got his side to defend compact and play with the right intensity in tight games.
AC Horsens
- AC Horsens have won just one of their last five, losing three and conceding four goals in a 0-4 defeat to Hvidovre
- Although the away side have been better than many expected under interim boss Mads Kristensen since the departure of David Nielsen, this is not a good time to be playing them.
- They play a high-intensity, compact press and like to get their players forward on the break and through the middle with speed.
Head-to-Head
Hillerød and AC Horsens have split their five previous 1. Division encounters, each side winning two with one draw
Key Players
- Hillerød
- Frederik Heiselberg, who joined Hillerød in the winter window, brings a different dimension to their attack and they should be a bigger threat going forward this spring with Tobias Arndal and other players finding the net in important moments lately.
- AC Horsens
- Matej Delač in goal and midfield organiser Patrick Olsen have always kept the Horsens pack organised, but their leadership has not been enough to prevent recent defensive breakdowns.
- Adrian R. Justinussen is the team’s new attacking spearhead after joining from Hillerød and can be lethal from set plays and in the box.
Betting Insights
Under 2.5 goals at 1.66 is a great price to take in this spot given the way both teams have played and the importance of the match.
Prediction
Hillerød’s extra experience and solid recent form suggests they can find a way to edge it, but we’re taking the draw at 3.2 for the primary bet in the match result market due to the visitors’ current unsettled state and the fact that neither side has been able to put a run of wins together against the other in this competition.
