As we head into the final round of Danish Superliga fixtures, two teams have the chance to lift the trophy on Sunday.
FC Midtjylland and Brondby IF are locked on 62 points at the summit of the table, with the former entertaining off-form Silkeborg IF at the MCH Arena.
In this preview, Forebet cover all the key stats and trends ahead of Sunday’s showdown. Read on to find out what our predictive analytics model forecasts.
Midtjylland came from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 with Nordsjaelland last time out, rescuing a point to keep their title dreams alive.
That result extended Midtjylland’s unbeaten streak to four matches, with three consecutive victories preceding Monday’s dramatic draw.
The Wolves have been especially strong at the MCH Arena in recent months, losing just one of their previous 12 home league games.
Having won seven of their last nine league matches on home soil – scoring over 1.5 goals in each of those clashes – Midtjylland will be confident of triumphing on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Silkeborg suffered a 2-0 defeat against Brondby last time out, meaning they head into the final day on a run of three losses in four games.
To make matters worse for SIF, they have lost five of their last seven league matches, with 12 defeats coming in their previous 16 encounters.
When you look at the bigger picture, Silkeborg have managed to win just two of their last 19 Superliga games, suffering 13 defeats in the process.
It is also worth noting that SIF have lost seven of their previous nine away league outings, conceding over 1.5 goals in seven of those clashes.
Head-to-head: Silkeborg claimed a 3-0 victory over Midtjylland last month, ending a five-game winless run against the Wolves in the league.
Given that eight of their previous nine meetings have produced over 2.5 goals, Sunday’s showdown will likely be another high-scoring affair.
Team news: FC Midtjylland are still without long-term injury absentee Marrony, with fellow forward Alhaji Kamara also expected to miss the final game.
Silkeborg IF also have a couple of injury absentees, with 20-year-old defender Alexander Busch and midfielder Frederik Carlsen on the sidelines.
When you couple Silkeborg’s poor form with this fixture’s high-scoring history, all the signs point towards a big win for the hosts.
Forebet’s AI algorithm predicts that FC Midtjylland will score over 2.5 goals and keep a clean sheet on their way to defeating Silkeborg IF.
