Vejle
- Vejle sit 3rd in the 1st Division 2026/2027 table with 4 points from 2 matches, Hillerod are 11th with 0 points from 2.
- Vejle are unbeaten in 3 home games, 1 win and 2 draws.
- Vejle Boldklub have made a solid start to the 1st Division 2026/2027 season, 3 wins and 2 draws in their last 5 matches, and 1 win and 1 draw in their first 2 games this season, including a 2-0 away win at Koge yesterday.
- Vejle like to play through the wide areas and build from the back with plenty of structure, they are not a side that will be caught out as they also keep their mid-block compact, which can be a problem for sides like Hillerod.
- Claus Noergaard has really brought flexibility to the side since taking over on 1 January 2026, at times playing 4-3-3, at times 4-2-3-1 and at other times 3 at the back, whilst Hillerod are more set in their ways.
Hillerod
- Hillerod have made a rough start to the new season, 4 defeats in their last 5 games and 4 consecutive losses, 3-2 loss at home to Esbjerg F.B. in the 1st Division 2026/2027.
- Christian Loenstrup has done a fantastic job since taking over at Hillerod on 1 January 2021, shaping a modern side built around vertical breaks and fast wing play.
- Hillerod press after turnovers and attempt to break quickly, so the battle in midfield and the match-up between the full-backs will be very interesting on Sunday.
Key Players
- Tobias Bach is Vejle's danger man, he leads the club with 2 goals in 2 games in the 1st Division 2026/2027 and has scored 3 of their last 9 goals in their last 5.
- Magnus Munck is Hillerod's spark, 1 goal in 2 games in the 1st Division 2026/2027.
Betting Insights
- Vejle are the clear favorites at 1.58 and Hillerod are a big price at 5.37, whilst the draw is 3.8.
- Hillerod can cause an upset, however, if they make this into a game of transition and counter attacks, which could lead to a couple of goals.
Prediction
Vejle should control the game, but a Vejle win and under 3.5 goals is the pick for Sunday's 1st Division 2026/2027 matchup at Vejle Stadion, Denmark.
