Struggling Esbjerg will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying AGF in the upcoming league round. It's 13th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Esbjerg form and stats
Esbjerg's struggle is real here at Blue Water Arena with only 9 points collected from 9 Superliga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-3-4.
Happy days for Esbjerg in their previous game, a Superliga match away at Silkeborg (placed 14th) that ended with a 2-1 victory. Prior to that, an away loss at Brøndby.
The Esbjerg fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 9 matches. On the other hand, Esbjerg have conceded 13 goals.
AGF form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Superliga travels is 3 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats.
AGF are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the Superliga against Brøndby (placed 3rd). A home win before that, celebrating 4-2 vs SønderjyskE.
AGF are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 9 away goals from 8 games (in the league). AGF have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; AGF - Esbjerg 1-0. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: 2 wins for Esbjerg, 3 draws and 5 wins for AGF. Over 2,5 goals: 5 times; under 2,5 goals: 5 games.Top Goalscorers
