The Betinia Liga continues on Monday evening at Esbjerg Stadium as Esbjerg fB takes on an out-of-form HB Koge.
Placed fourth and 11th respectively in Denmark's second tier, the hosts have enjoyed a far stronger start to the new season, and will be fancied to claim the points on Monday.
Esbjerg picked up victories in both of last season's meetings between these sides, and a hat-trick of wins could be on the cards at Esbjerg Stadium.

Esbjerg fB team overview
Esbjerg return to action this week after a disappointing 2:0 defeat at Hobro last weekend. Sancheev Manoharan's side have been in good form, picking up five victories in six previous fixtures before their away defeat seven days ago.
Sitting fourth in the division after seven games played, Esbjerg sit just three points behind league leaders Horsens.
A high-scoring matchup could be on the cards on Monday. HB have seen over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven games, while Esbjerg have seen the same outcome in eight of their last 13 matches.
Esbjerg scored a 4:1 win when these sides last met at this venue, and a similar outcome seems likely, with a high-scoring home win expected on Monday.
Head coach Manoharan could make some changes to his first XI this week. Mikail Maden and Julius Lucena are among those in contention for a recall to the side. The hosts have no reported injury or suspension issues.

HB Koge team overview
HB Koge make the trip to Esbjerg Stadium in dismal form after a 3:1 reversal at Hillerød last week. Three goals conceded in the first-half ensured a miserable day at the office for Nicklas Pedersen's side.
HB have endured a miserable run, losing five of their last six matches. Four of those games finished with at least three goals scored. Seven games into the season, Pedersen's men sit 11th in the division with just seven points on the board.
Head coach Pedersen is likely to consider some alterations to his selection this week. Gabriel Larsen and Alfred Gøthler are among the likely contenders to earn recalls to the first XI.
