Viborg vs Lyngby
Danish Superliga
Date: 28 July 2023, Friday
Kick-off at 18:00 UK / 19:00 CET
Venue: Energi Viborg Arena (Viborg).
Viborg will be hoping to rebound from a terrible start to the 2023/24 Superliga campaign on Friday afternoon when they host Lyngby in Gameweek No 2 at Energi Viborg Arena.
The team led by Jacob Friis found an early opener in the first round against Norsdjaelland through Mads Sondergaard but only to concede four unanswered goals for a devastating result at the beginning of the new domestic campaign.
Friis’ men should have a nice chance to make amends here as they take on one of the weakest teams in the competition on Friday.
Lyngby barely avoided relegation to the second class of Danish football last year as they remained in the league only on goal difference.
The visitors are also yet to claim their maiden point(s) in the new season, following a 1-2 home defeat to FC Copenhagen on the opening day last weekend.
We must praise Alfred Finnbogasson, though, as the famous Icelandic forward bagged one goal and had another that was disallowed on the occasion.
Knowing how poor Viborg’s defensive line was in the inaugural game of the season, we can see plenty of pace for Finnbogasson to thrive on Friday.
Viborg have more quality in their squad and they will be highly motivated to make amends after a demolishing defeat to Nordsjaelland on the opening day. Knowing their defensive line has looked shaky in preseason as well, we can see Lyngby on target as well on Friday.
This makes the Home win & Both Teams To Score a standout betting option at the odds of 3.50. You can alternatively just go with the Over 2.5 goals FT bet at the 1.70 odds.
