Nordsjaelland vs Aarhus Match Preview

Nordsjaelland is ranked at the 6th place with 46 points and comes in a poor form as they are winless in the last five matches with a single draw and four losses. In fact, their form has been bad for a longer period considering they won just two of the last ten games. Of course since the Championship group started they had no goals to compete for a higher spot and this influenced their performances.

They returned on scoring in the last 6-3 loss against Midtjylland, which was the first game they scored after four duels where they failed. Now once again I do not expect them to get a better result, but I fancy them to continue with scoring at least a goal since they are playing at home. They have done so in four out of the last five h2h games at home against their rivals.

Aarhus, on the other hand, is ranked at the second spot with 63 points. They come after three wins and two losses over the last five matches and in the last week they managed to outrank Copenhagen and now aim to secure the direct qualification to Europa League avoiding the playoffs. With 57 goals so far they have the second-best attack in the league alongside Nordsjaelland.

In the last five matches, they have scored nine goals averaging almost two goals per game culminating in the recent win 4-2 against direct rivals of Copenhagen. Despite being on the road here I expect them to keep the same numbers as they have scored 11 goals in the last five games.

In conclusion, I think this game can have over 2.5 goals. Nordsjaelland will play another game without pressure like they have done in the last games and I do not expect them to play a lot in defense. Aarhus will be motivated to win here in order to keep their current spot and since their rivals have a leaky defense I expect them to score a couple of goals.
