Brondby vs Nordsjaelland Match Preview

Brondby is ranked at the 4th place with 48 points and comes after a win three draws and a loss over the last five matches. It was expected a lot more by them before the Championship group started because their goal was to qualify for Europa League. Now they sit nine points behind Aarhus and even though mathematically they can still make it the chances are slim.

With 50 goals scored so far they have shown a decent offensive side and especially at home where they have scored 28 goals in 15 games, averaging almost two goals per game. Also, at home they are unbeaten in the last five matches which should give them a boost in confidence ahead of this duel.

Nordsjaelland, on the other hand, is ranked at the 5th place with 45 points and comes after a single win a draw and three losses over the last five matches. This form is explained by the fact they have no goals to play for, so they are not really playing for the result. With 54 goals in 31 games they have the best offensive side in the league, averaging almost two goals per game.

Despite the negative results, they have found the back of the net at least once in three of the last five games, while on the road they have done even better scoring in each of the last five outings. It is worth mentioning they won four of the last five matches on the road and three of them were by a two goal margin.

In conclusion, I think this match can have over 2.5 goals. Brondby is going to have to try and win in order to keep their hopes alive for a spot in the next season's Europa League and since they are at home a goal is the minimum expected by them. Nordsjaelland has no pressure over them and I guess we will see them focus more on attack than on defense like they have done lately.
