Early betting lines indicate OB advantage hosting Horsens at Nature Energy Park

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for OB and Horsens.

OB form and stats

The story so far in the Superliga for OB at their home stadium (Nature Energy Park) is 4 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats. Hopes of three in a row are alive for OB after consecutive victories at their own ground.

OB enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Lyngby's place. The match ended 2-1 with Emmanuel Sabbi and Issam Jebali scoring. Jeppe Tverskov, defender, was given a rating of 7.45/10 in that game, top of the team. Tverskov won 4 of 5 duels. The victory against Lyngby came after Emmanuel Sabbi's winning goal. The OB manager M. Hemmingsen was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 81st minute.

Before that, OB played out a draw 2-2 when visiting Vejle.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from OB's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played three games, won two matches, drawn zero and lost one.

The OB fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 11 matches. 12 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Horsens form and stats

There's been little loot from Horsens's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 11 away games in the Superliga. Horsens, who have the fewest scored goals (15) in Superliga, only have 0 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 3 draws.

The manager J. Askou was unhappy after their last game, a Superliga match played at their home ground CASA Arena Horsens. Horsens suffered a 1-2 loss to SønderjyskE. Defender Alexander Ludwig was the best team player with a rating of 7.82. Ludwig scored one goal and won 5 of 8 duels.

Before that, Horsens travelled to AaB and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

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 Horsens playing away, we found five games. Results were one away win, zero draws and four home wins.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Horsens's away games in the league this season with only 4 goals from 11 matches. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Horsens's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 18 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Horsens - OB 1-1. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: five wins for OB, three draws and two wins for Horsens. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
