Match begins: 13:00 (UTC)
Venue: Lyngby Stadion (12000 seats)

Struggling Lyngby will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying AGF in the upcoming league round. It’s 12th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Lyngby form and stats

Lyngby 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. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Lyngby to get some points in this home game.

Lyngby are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 2-4 away versus København. Preceding that match was a defeat to OB (0-3).

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

There will be little rest for Lyngby after this match as they are travelling to Slagelse B&I for a Landspokal Cup game in only three days.

Lyngby have scored 2 league goals here from 3 matches, not a lot. Lyngby have conceded 5 from these games.

AGF form and stats

Things could have gone better for AGF in their Superliga away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right. It's three draws from AGF's last three away games, a decent catch but one that could be so much better.

AGF are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at SønderjyskE (placed 1st). The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against København.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the AGF manager A. Nørgaard as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Kolding IF.

AGF are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 3 away goals from 3 games (in the league). As opposed to that, AGF have seen the ball go into their own net 3 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Lyngby five wins, four draws and AGF one victory. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six games had two or less.
