The visiting Kolding IF side should be favourites in this visit to Næstved, as the away team holds a 15 point advantage from their 28 league games this season.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Næstved form and stats
Næstved have collected 18 points from their First Division home games so far after 4-6-4. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at ProfaGroupPark, but a victory now would be sweet for Næstved.
Næstved drew their last game, also a home match. Viborg (placed 2nd) was the opponent, 2-2 the score. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Skive.
This is expected to be a close game, with Næstved perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Næstved as a small favourite), we find six games. Næstved has won one of these, drawn five and lost zero.
The Næstved fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 14 matches. Næstved's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 15 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
