Lyngby (home)
- Lyngby are favourites to win the match and possibly the matchup itself as they have accumulated the most points in the division since the beginning of the spring.
- The home side, who are coached by the joint leadership of Andreas Bjelland and Mikkel Jespersen, have played a balanced, high-tempo 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 hybrid all season.
- The players press aggressively, but the ball is moved quickly when they have it with the full-backs getting forward and the two central midfielders rotating to keep the ball.
- Frederik Gytkjær is their talisman and has scored around 12 league goals, but the most important thing about the striker is that he is a big, strong player who can hold the ball in the box and convert chances at a high percentage.
AC Horsens (away)
- Horsens have a solid defensive record this term, although they sometimes lack the cutting edge to break down the better sides in the division.
- They’ve kept a lot of clean sheets, but have drawn with a few of the worst sides in the division and beat Lyngby in April.
- Zimling has a set-up that is easy to play, usually 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1, and the players sit deep and use their wide men and forwards to run off the shoulder of the first defender, creating transitions.
- Adrian Rúnason Justinussen leads the line with 10-11 goals, many of which have come on the break or from set pieces, while Matej Delač is a solid last line of defense.
- Kristian Kirkegaard is the top assist provider and is the link between the first and second lines of the Horsens 4-2-3-1.

Betting Insights
- Lyngby have the firepower to put this game away, however, and that’s why I’m taking Over 2.5 goals at 1.81 and Lyngby to come out on top at 2.42.
- Horsens are available at 2.5 and the Draw at 3.75.
Prediction
- Both sides have a lot to play for as Lyngby could seal promotion on Monday while Horsens must win to maintain their slim hopes of automatic promotion.
- The game is a chance for both sides to make a statement and I expect both teams to leave nothing on the pitch.
