Esbjerg and Hobro set for a draw in a vital clash

Esbjerg fB vs Hobro IK - 31/03/2022

5355

On Thursday night, Esbjerg hosts Hobro in the Danish Division.1, in what could be a vital clash in the fight for survival.

With two teams suffering relegation, Esbjerg are in big trouble in the Danish second tier, as they are just two points above the two relegation spots. They are also just two points behind Thursday night’s visitors in the standings.

The home team heads into this clash on the back of a woeful recent run of form, as they have failed to win in five league matches, having suffered four defeats in the run.

Esbjerg’s biggest problem of late has been finding the net, as they have failed to score in four of their last five matches in Division.1. They have also conceded at least two goals in eight of their last 11 league games too.

The home team has also won just once in their last four home matches in the Danish second tier.

Hobro will head into this potentially vital clash in good spirits after a recent four-game unbeaten run in the league. A 1-1 draw at Fremad Amager last time out ended a three-game winning run for the visitors.

The game also ended a run of high-scoring games for Hobro in the Danish second tier, although seven of their last nine league matches have still produced over 2.5 goals.

The visitors know that a victory in this clash could give them some breathing space in the fight for survival in Division.1.

One negative for Hobro heading into this clash is that they have won just one of their last 21 away games in the Danish second tier.

With these two teams so close together, there is no great surprise that Forebet predicts that this clash will end in a high-scoring encounter.
