After five games we know a little more about the qualities of Nordsjælland and OB in this fresh Superliga season. Read our match preview!

Nordsjælland form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Nordsjælland's two home games so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Sportveld Aparthotel Delden.

Nordsjælland drew their last game, also a home match. Silkeborg was the opponent, 2-2 the score. Heartbreak before that as Nordsjælland lost 1-3 at Randers's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Nordsjælland perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Nordsjælland as a small favourite), we find five games. Nordsjælland has won 1 of these, drawn 2 and lost 2.

Early season goal statistics from Nordsjælland's 2 home games: 4 goals, 2 conceded.

W W L W L

OB form and stats

OB are doing rather OK so far in their away games, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).

OB won their last game, 1-0 versus Randers played at home. Prior to that result OB won their away game at Esbjerg. The scoreline was 1-0.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eight similar matches played by OB in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for OB, 4 draws and 2 defeats.

It's early days yet, but OB has scored 3 and conceded 3 goals from their travels so far (2 games).
