Silkeborg form and stats
4 victories, 1 draw and 4 defeats. That’s what Silkeborg have to build on here at JYSK park in the Superliga. Game days at JYSK park have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Silkeborg as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.
An away draw last time out for Silkeborg, facing AGF in a game that ended 1-1. Engel was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.42 out of 10. The defender Engel served one assist, hit one key pass and won 5 of 8 duels.
Ahead of that match, Silkeborg lost 0-3 at home to København.This is expected to be a close game, with Silkeborg perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Silkeborg as a small favourite), we find 7 games. Silkeborg has won 3 of these, drawn 1 and lost 3.
Observe: 8 of the latest 10 league games from these players have had goals from both teams.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Silkeborg as they are travelling to their away game against SønderjyskE in the Landspokal Cup. That match is three days after this one.
Silkeborg has scored 13 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 14 goals have been conceded. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
