Arun - August 1, 2021
Sonderjyske vs Nordsjaelland
Denmark – Superliga
Date: Monday, 2 July 2021
Kick-off at 18:00 UK/ 19:00 CET
Venue: Sydbank Park (Haderslev).
Sonderjyske host Nordsjaelland on Mondays and our analysts back goals for this Danish Superliga fixture.
The hosts bagged their first win of the season last week at the expense of Vejle with on a narrow 1-0 margin having drawn newly promoted Silkeborg on the season opener.
Back-to-back clean sheets are something rare for Sonderjyske and they will come to this match in full confidence.
Nordsjaelland had a poor start to their campaign after finishing 6th in the previous Superliga season. They started off with a surprise loss at newly promoted Viborg (1-2), meanwhile failed to find the target in the home fixture against Arhus (0-0).
The visitors are looking for their first win of the campaign on Monday, but they need to be on top of their game to do so.
The two head-to-head meetings between Sonderjyske and Nordsjaelland last season ended in home wins with the same 2-1 scoreline.
However, Nordsjaelland won 5 of the last 6 matches in Superliga versus Sonderjyske.
Their last 10 meetings across all venues and competitions saw both teams scoring as well as over 2.5 goals.
Interestingly, the most common scoreline is 2-1 that happened 5 times with 4-1 the second frequent occurring 4 times during the 10-match span.
Both teams are in search of a victory on Monday evening, but Nordsjaelland wants it more after failing to win in the first two games of the season.
Sonderjyske are the better team on paper here, however this is Danish Superliga and surprise results are a common here.
We will back goals, their previous matchups are a booster, and not many h2h duels have the frequency of producing high scoring affairs.
