Struggling OB will be hoping to pull off a surprise win when they greet hard-driving Midtjylland in the next league round. It’s 9th vs 2nd and the home supporters will have modest confidence.

Insights:
  • OB have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Midtjylland haven’t played a single 0-0 game.

The visiting Midtjylland played their last game only three days ago, a Europa Conference League match. That game, against PAOK, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Midtjylland.
