This match features two teams living in the basement of the Superliga, SønderjyskE holding 11th place and Esbjerg lying 13th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
SønderjyskE form and stats
With 2 Superliga wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, SønderjyskE are certainly not brimming with confidence.
In their previous game, the manager G. Riddersholm led his SønderjyskE to a defeat in the Superliga match away at Randers. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Sydbank Park. The points were shared before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Lyngby.
This is expected to be a close game, with SønderjyskE perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with SønderjyskE as a small favourite), we find ten games. SønderjyskE has won 3 of these, drawn 1 and lost 6.
SønderjyskE has scored 9 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. SønderjyskE have conceded 15 from these games.
Esbjerg form and stats
Esbjerg have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Superliga, after 1-1-6 (8 played).
Esbjerg failed to get anything from their last game, a Superliga home match vs AGF (placed 3rd) that ended with defeat 1-2. Preceding that game was the away victory against Silkeborg with the score of 2-1.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Esbjerg playing away and similar expectations, we found three relevant matches. Results were 0 Esbjerg wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats.
The visitors have scored 5 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Esbjerg have conceded 15 goals in these games.
