Vejle are welcoming Nordsjælland for another important game after their 0-0 result against 5th-placed Randers.
- Vejle has the most points from losing position (8) in Superliga
- Nordsjælland have yet to win a game away.
The hosts Vejle saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Landspokal Cup. This match was also played here at Vejle Stadion. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Nordsjælland have had more rest.
10 - 10 - 18 with 58-72. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for Nordsjælland when playing on grass like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. Nordsjælland play their home games on artifical turf so that's why we provide these numbers.
Vejle form and stats
Vejle have played 7 Superliga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-2-3 (wins-draws-losses).
Nothing to worry about in defence for Vejle, as their goalkeeper Alexander Brunst-Zöllner has completely shut out the opponents for 289 minutes in the Superliga.
The spoils were shared in Vejle's previous game, also at home. Visiting Randers (placed 5th) travelled back with a draw after a 0-0 scoreline. In the preceding match a 1-0 victory visiting SønderjyskE.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Vejle have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found one match with the results: Won zero, drawn zero and lost one.
Vejle has scored 9 league goals at home this season, in 7 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.
Nordsjælland form and stats
There's been little loot from Nordsjælland's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 7 away games in the Superliga. Nordsjælland only have 0 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 3 draws. With the Nordsjælland losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Nordsjælland seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Nordsjælland aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 225 league minutes without a goal. M. Rygaard was the last player to find the net.
Nordsjælland might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. OB proved too strong as Nordsjælland slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Right to Dream Park. A loss against OB was the result prior to that, in a home game.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found six similar matches played by Nordsjælland in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Nordsjælland, one draw and two defeats.
Nordsjælland have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 7 league away games 9 goals have been scored. Nordsjælland have conceded 14 goals in these games.
