It's no vacation for neither Thisted nor København as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Stress levels are on the rise for Thisted's attacking players as they have now played 180 minutes without scoring in a league game. Kouzine was their last goal scorer.
In their previous game, the manager Popczynski led his Thisted to a defeat away at Aarhus Fremad. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Sparekassen Thy Arena. Thisted were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
Before that game, the home loss against Brabrand with the scoreline 0-1.There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Thisted, as the 2nd Division home game vs Frem is only four days away.
