FC Copenhagen vs Viborg Betting Tips - FC Copenhagen to Win
The second leg of this DBU Pokalen semi-final takes place in Denmark's capital with Copenhagen holding a narrow 1:0 lead from the first leg. In-form Jordan Larsson's second-half goal secured a priceless advantage for Byens.
Jacob Neestrup’s side are building momentum at the right time. A run of four straight wins sees them sitting at the top of the Superliga coming into the final weeks of the season, and on-course to secure another DBU Pokalen final appearance.
Five victories in their last seven games at Parken will give the home side plenty of confidence as they look to make good on last week's first-leg victory.
Viborg arrive in the capital very much as underdogs despite a decent run of form in the past couple of months. While the visitors have lost just one of their last 11 matches across all competitions, an inability to turn draws into wins has proven an issue. Jakob Poulsen's side failed to win any of their last five games, with four of those matches ending deadlocked.
Dogged and well-drilled, a lack of cutting edge on the road has been the biggest concern. Viborg scored just once across their last three away games in all competitions, and it’s hard to see where the goals will come from against a strong Copehagen side.
In the end, while unlikely to be an easy night, I expect the home side to add to their first-leg advantage on Thursday.
A home win is my best bet at Parken.
