Silkeborg vs Brondby tips and predictions

Chance for Silkeborg

With only 2 points between the two sides it's third placed Silkeborg versus fourth placed Brondbyin this clash.

It's not a widely held view to go for the upset but Brondby frankly look too short to get excited about.

A look at the respective results for each side; the hosts have secured 5 wins in 9 matches while the travelling side has pulled up short at times. They've lost 3 of their last 7 matches, away and at home. For such a short priced team, perhaps they'd be expected to have done better than this.

Silkeborg need to be at their best to have any chance. They scored at least once in all of their recent 13 matches and the rest of the team has been industrious too. At the back they've conceded no more than once in 3 of their last 4 games.

Brondby have conceded three or more goals in 6 of their last 17 matches. There's probably not enough in these stats to get carried away with - these defenders will have been focussing on any lapses in training. Form is temporary whereas class is permanent. They are expected to win for a reason.

It's not a hugely confident prediction and the hosts may feel they've exceeded expectations if they end up with honours even. Most previews are saying that both sides can get in on the act despite the favouritism for Brondby. It's not a strong view but the odds-against for the BTTS No looks a bit more tempting on this occasion. In the total goals market, it's Over 3.5 standing out in this one considering the price that's available.
