AaB form and stats

1 victory, 4 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what AaB have to build on here at Aalborg Portland Park in the Superliga. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

The AaB goalkeeper Theo Sander is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 213 minutes without conceding a goal in the Superliga.

AaB are returning here after visiting Vanløse in a Landspokal Cup fixture and winning with a 3-1 scoreline. Finally, a league win after four fixtures without one.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Lyngby and winning 2-0.

AaB have scored {5 league goals} here from 6 matches, not a lot.

Viborg form and stats

There's been little loot from Viborg's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 6 away games in the Superliga. Viborg only have 1 win to counter their 3 defeats and 2 draws. Viborg has showed their ability to avoid defeat with four draws in a row, but are also dodging victories. They last avoided the draw 42 days ago, in the Horsens fixture.

Two trips in a row for Viborg, whose boss Friis could celebrate last time after the Landspokal Cup win against Ishøj.

Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs OB.

The visitors have scored 5 goals from 6 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. 8 goals have been conceded by Viborg in these games.
