Steffen Schmidt - March 1, 2023
Aarhus vs Horsens
Danish Superligaen
Date: 3 March 2023, Friday
Kick-off at 18:00 UK / 19:00 CET
Venue: Ceres Park & Arena (Aarhus).
Aarhus got extremely unlucky to concede a late stoppage-time equalizer in the last weekend’s home clash against Silkeborg.
Uwe Rosler’s men had the lead throughout the majority of the game but ended up conceding an unfortunate goal to settle for a point on the occasion.
Nevertheless, the German manager can still be satisfied with the overall performances his men have shown in the opening two outings after the lengthy winter break.
Aarhus are very tough to break down these days. The mentioned stoppage-time goal was the only goal they have allowed in the previous two league games.
AGF are now seventh in the Superligaen standings, sitting just two points shy of Randers in fourth place.
The hosts will have a nice opportunity to extend their fine run of form on Friday evening when they host Horsens in the first fixture of Gameweek No 20 at Ceres Park & Arena.
Horsens are third from bottom in the league ladder and they will most likely play the Relegation Round at the end of the season.
Nevertheless, they are eight points clear of Aalborg in the 11th place and preserving the top flight status has generally been the ultimate goal for the recently-promoted outfit ahead of the start of the season.
We have to say that Horsens suffered two tough defeats at the hands of Brondby and Viborg in the last two games, shipping eight goals in the process.
The hosts have been much more stable defensively than their counterparts of late and we expect their stern defensive line to get them a three-pointer on Friday. Also, Horsens have a terrible road record of 1 win, 1 draw, and 7 defeats in 9 Superligaen games away from home this season.
We will back Aarhus to win to nil as the main bet at the 2.75 odds, while you can alternatively go with the 1-0 correct score bet at the 6.50 odds.
