Midtjylland form and stats

Midtjylland have collected 21 points from their Superliga home games so far after 7-0-4.

It's back home for Midtjylland, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating AaB away with the result 2-1. Andersson and Chilufya found the net in that victory. Isaksen, who usually plays near the opponent's goal, was the declared top player for the side in that fixture, collecting a rating of 7.72 (out of 10). Isaksen hit the woodwork once, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times.

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 five wins, one draw and two defeats (from eight games).

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Midtjylland as they are travelling to their away game against Silkeborg in the Superliga. That match is four days after this one.

Early season league goal statistics from Midtjylland's 11 home games: 22 goals, 11 conceded.

Brøndby form and stats

4-4-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Brøndby in their Superliga matches away. Bitter travels for Brøndby as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Silkeborg match.

Brøndby delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against København in their previous fixture. The draw against København came from a losing position. The Brøndby manager Frederiksen brought on Greve as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Randers wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Brøndby manager Frederiksen as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against AaB.

Brøndby find the net regularly in their away games. 14 goals from 11 away fixtures in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Brøndby have conceded 15 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

The duelists have battled previously this season: Brøndby - Midtjylland 1-3. The ref had use for red card when these teams last met, and the sinner was Maxso (Brøndby). Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: five - one - four (Midtjylland wins - draws - Brøndby wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.
