A fast pace is expected at MCH Arena when Midtjylland host AaB in what promises to be a top-notch game. Read on!
- Midtjylland have the most scored goals (22) at home in Superliga
The visiting AaB played their last game only four days ago, a Superliga match. That game was also an away game, at Brøndby. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Midtjylland form and stats
Midtjylland have played 11 Superliga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-0-4 (wins-draws-losses).

Prior to that, an away loss at København.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Midtjylland matches with similar probabilities have ended with four wins, one draw and two defeats (from seven games).
At MCH Arena, Midtjylland has the goal stats of 22-11 (for/against) from 11 league fixtures.
AaB form and stats
6 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of AaB playing as the away team in the Superliga this season. Long winning streaks away are a rare occurrence in football, which only makes AaB's record of five away victories in a row even more impressive. They last lost points away in the AGF game.
The AaB goalkeeper Jacob Rinne is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 189 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
It's the second away game in a row for AaB, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Brøndby last time out. Thelander, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.51. Thelander won 9 of 10 duels.
Prior to that match, a home win 3-0 against Randers.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and AaB playing away, we found six games. Results were three away wins, one draw and two home wins.
The travelling fans enjoy AaB's attacking play in away games, having scored 18 goals in 11 league matches away.
