Viborg to win vital play-off against Hobro
3075
On Thursday evening, Hobro host Viborg at the DS Arena in a vital relegation/ promotion play-off in the Danish Superliga.
Hobro endured a poor Superliga campaign and have won just twice in their last 11 matches in all competitions. However, the home side has already won one play-off against Vejle. They needed extra-time to set-up this tie, beating Vejle 2-0 in extra-time.
Their recent matches in the Superliga, including play-off games, have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five outings, including their last three games.
One of Hobro’s main problems of late has been winning home games, as they have won just once in their last five outings, suffering five defeats in the process. Although their matches on home soil have not necessarily been high-scoring, both teams have scored in four of Hobro’s last five home games.
The home side has a poor recent record against the visitors, failing to beat Viborg in five matches in all competitions, picking up just two draws and suffering three defeats.
Viborg finished second in the Danish second tier, missing out on automatic promotion to the top-flight by just a point. They head into this game on the back of a five-game unbeaten run, including four wins. Last time out they hammered Fremad Amager 4-0.
A key to the visitor’s recent good form has been their efforts in front of goal, as they have scored at least two goals in four of their last five matches.
Viborg’s most recent away form has been inconsistent, but they have won four of their last six matches on their travels. The visitors have scored 12 goals in their last six away matches and will be confident of adding to that tally in this clash.
Forebet predicts that Viborg will record a victory in a low-scoring clash, which will put them in the driving seat ahead of the second leg on Sunday evening.
