Landspokal Cup: Horsens - Silkeborg prediction and detailed statistics

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.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Silkeborg have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 16-8-12 (win-draw-loss) from 36 matches.

Horsens form and stats

Last season their Landspokal Cup adventure ended in the 8th finals.

Horsens have played 12 Superliga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-1-6 (wins-draws-losses). This match is a Landspokal Cup match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 3 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses in this competition. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Horsens to get some points in this home game. Horsens are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at CASA Arena Horsens, having lost their two previous games here.

Horsens's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Randers. Preceding that match was the home Superliga game against AGF that was lost 1-2.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Horsens have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found three games) they have won three times, drawn zero and lost zero.

There will be little rest for Horsens after this match as they are travelling to København for a Superliga game in only three days.

The Horsens fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 12 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Horsens defense is not exactly impregnable. 21 goals conceded from 12 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Silkeborg form and stats

Silkeborg's mission in Landspokal Cup last season failed in the 3rd round.

Silkeborg have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Superliga, after 1-4-7 (12 played). When we have look at the Landspokal Cup statistics, we find 3W-0D-0L. This is both home and away.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to OB in their previous outing. The Superliga match ended in a draw 1-1. A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting København in the Superliga.

The draw against OB came from a losing position. The Silkeborg manager K. Nielsen brought on Jeppe Okkels as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.

We have checked recent matches where Silkeborg have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those four games were two victories, zero draws and two defeats.

After this away game Silkeborg return home for a Superliga game against AGF. That game is only four sleeps after this.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Silkeborg have scored 15 goals in 12 league games away. For Silkeborg, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

Horsens-Silkeborg H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Horsens three wins, Silkeborg five wins, two draws. six of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
