Midtjylland form and stats

Midtjylland, who have the most points (35) at home in Superliga, have been outstanding at home so far with 11 wins, 2 draws and only 0 losses.

The fans are hoping that Midtjylland will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the Superliga game against OB. A strong away win before that one, visiting Nordsjælland and winning 2-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Midtjylland perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Midtjylland as a small favourite), we find one game. Midtjylland has won 1 of these, drawn 0 and lost 0.

Midtjylland are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at MCH Arena, having scored an impressive 38 goals in 13 games. From these home matches, Midtjylland have conceded only 11 goals.

Things are running smoothly for København who hasn't tasted defeat in their last 14 matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Bordeaux.
