Silkeborg and Hobro are ready to show off their new players and skills: It's their first game of the Superliga season.

Silkeborg have less rest than Hobro in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Superliga game only four days ago.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Hobro have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 1-0-3 (win-draw-loss) from four matches.
