- Competition: 1st Division

- Kick-off: 17:30 UK / 18:30 CEST
- Venue: Capelli Sport Stadion
Køge will be looking to build on their impressive start to the Danish Second Division on Friday when they play host to Aarhus Fremad.
The hosts began their 2025 campaign last weekend with a comfortable 2-0 win over Hobro, while Aarhus Fremad played out a goalless draw with Horsens.
Koge narrowly avoided relegation last season, finishing only four points above the bottom two, and had the second-worst defence. However, Nicklas Pedersen’s team performed well in their pre-season friendlies, winning three of their four matches. They weren't just prolific in front of goal, scoring 13 times over the four fixtures; they also kept two clean sheets.
Meanwhile, Aarhus Fremad are one of the new teams in the Danish second division. The visitors were promoted to the First Division after winning the third tier by a mere one-point margin. Kjærgaard's side will be hoping to secure another promotion this season, but it won't be easy. We saw as much in their opening second division game last weekend at Horsens, where they failed to score.
HB Køge vs Aarhus Fremad Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
As Friday’s game marks the first meeting between Koge and Aarhus Fremad, it’s hard to predict a clear winner, but I expect to see goals. Koge have scored eleven goals in their last three games alone, and also have a good goalscoring record at the Capelli Sport Stadium. In fact, the Swans found the net at least twice in each of their last three competitive home encounters, and bets on over 2.5 goals won twice in that period.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

HB Køge team news
Køge didn’t suffer any injuries in their 2-0 win over Hobro last week, so it wouldn’t be surprising if head coach Nicklas Pedersen stuck with the side that secured their third consecutive home victory in the First Division.
Consequently, Christian Tue Jensen will retain his position in attack after scoring his eighth and ninth goals for the club, while Gabriel M. Larsen will be the player to watch in midfield.
