Hobro form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the First Division this season. Hobro have only managed 2 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses from their games here at DS Arena. When Hobro hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Hvidovre, Fredericia and Lyngby), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

No payout for Hobro in their previous match, an away game at Horsens that ended in defeat 1-2. Heartbreak for Hobro in their last match as Horsens's C. Tengstedt scored the winning goal deep into overtime. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at K. Høgh for missing a penalty kick versus Horsens in the 65th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

Ahead of that match, Hobro won a home game hosting Hvidovre (2-1).

The Hobro fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 12 goals in 8 league matches. Hobro are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (18 from 8 played). When Hobro hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Fremad Amager, Vendsyssel and Jammerbugt), the matches have ended over 2.5 goals 2 of 2 times.
