AaB form and stats

AaB have played three Superliga home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. AaB have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

AaB drew their last game, also a home match. Nordsjælland (placed 1st) was the opponent, 0-0 the score. Defender Ludewig got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.33/10. Ludewig won 3 of 4 duels.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Silkeborg (1-3).

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 AaB have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 9 matches with the results: Won 1, drawn 4 and lost 4.

The lack of attacking qualities in AaB means that they have only scored 1 goal in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match.
