Viborg could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Landspokal Cup game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Viby. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

OB form and stats

The story so far in the Superliga for OB at their home stadium (Nature Energy Park) is 1 win, 0 draws and 3 defeats.

OB are returning here after visiting Silkeborg and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. Kadrii and Frøkjær-Jensen scored the goal(s). The victory against Silkeborg came after Frøkjær-Jensen's winning goal. The OB manager Alm was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 62nd minute. Midfielder Jebali was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.42 (out of ten) in that game. Jebali served one assist and hit three key passes.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Horsens.

This is expected to be a close game, with OB perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with OB as a small favourite), we find 8 games. OB has won 2 of these, drawn 2 and lost 4.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for OB as they are travelling to their away game against Nykøbing in the Landspokal Cup. That match is three days after this one.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for OB here at Nature Energy Park in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (3 from 4 games). Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for OB with 9 goals conceded in these matches.
